INTRODUCTION. 

By  II.  A.  IIuRE,  State  Libearian. 


This  l)Ook  is  in  remembrance  of  Marcus  D.  Gii.man.  Made  b}'  him  as  a 
memorial  of  otbers  and  their  work,  it  now  stands  by  the  indnstry  which  he  wronght 
in  love  of  his  State,  l)y  the  gift  of  his  children,  and  by  an  act  of  that  State  which 
did  it  as  well  as  him  honor,  as  a  worthy  and  lasting  memorial  of  himself. 

How  it  came  to  have  its  being  in  its  present  shape  is  shown  by  the  following 
letter  from  his  danghter,  Mrs.  Cnshman,  and  her  husband,  and  the  act  of  the  Ver- 
mont legislature  of  1894,  authorizing  the  publication  : 

To  the  Lih'arian  of  the  Vermont  State  Library,  Montpelier,  Vt.: 

Dear  Sir  :— The  "Bibliography  of  Vermont,  or  a  List  of  Books  and  Pamphlets 
relating  in  any  way  to  the  State,  with  biographical  and  other  notes  ;  pi-e}iarcd  by 
M.  D.  Gilman,  Montpelier,  Vt.,"  represents  much  thought  and  time  and  labor  of 
its  author. 

The  work  was  done  by  him  during  his  years  of  retirement  from  active  business 
and  in  love  and  loyalty  to  his  native  State. 

We,  his  surviving  children,  as  the  only  heirs  of  his  beloved  wife,  Mrs.  M.  M. 
Gilman,  have  in  our  possession  and  ownership  corrected  slips  of  the  whole  work  as 
])ublished  in  1879-80  in  the  Argus  and  Patriot,  together  with  the  author's  addi- 
tions made  from  time  to  time  until  his  decease,  January  5,  1889. 

Feeling  that  this  work  is  too  important  to  remain  inaccessible  to  those  who  are 
interested  in  the  literary  achievements  of  Vermonters,  and  furthermore  desiring  that 
the  work  should  be  preserved  as  a  monument  to  our  esteemed  father,  we  hereby 
jirexenithe  entire  worh  to  the  Vermoiit  State  Libi-ary,  in  the  as.snraiice  that  it  will 
be  safely  guarded  there,  and  in  the  earnest  hoj)e  that  the  State  will  l)e  disposed,  in 
the  near  future,  to  make  the  work  more  accessible  liy  jirinting  the  same. 

Respectfully  yours,

iv  INTRODUCTION. 

At  tlie  legislative  session  next  succeeding  the  presentation  of  tLe  work  to  the 
State  the  following  act  was  passed  : 

"AN  ACT  TO   AUTHOKIZE   THE   PUBLICATION    OF   THE    OILMAN 
BIBLIOGRAPHY  OF  VERMONT. 

It  is  hereby  enacted  ly  the  General  Asseinbly  of  the  State  of  Vermont  : 

Section  1.  The  Printing  Commissioners  are  anthorized  to  procure  the  print- 
ing and  hinding  of  not  to  exceed  eight  hundred  copies  of  the  Oilman  Bibliography 
of  Vermont,  at  an  expense  to  the  state  not  exceeding  two  dollars  and  twenty-iive 
cents  a  copy,  to  be  disposed  of  as  follows  :  one  cojiy  to  each  town  and  city  clerk's 
oillee,  one  copy  to  each  free  public  library  in  tlie  state,  fifty  copies  to  the  Vermont 
Historical  Society,  and  the  remainder  to  the  State  Lil)rary  for  sale  or  exciiange  under 
the  direction  of  the  trustees. 

The  Secretary  of  State  shall  procure  copyright  of  the  book  for  the  State. 
Approved  November  24,  1894." 


Charles  Reed  and  Mr.  Oilman  had  known  each  other  as  young  men,  and  they 
had  kept  an  acquaintance  that  was  the  more  intimate  as  Mrs.  Reed  and  Mrs.  Oilman 
were  sisters.  At  the  time  of  Mr.  Oilman's  return  to  the  East,  Mr.  Reed,  who  was 
State  librarian  and  librarian  of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society,  was  much  interested 
in  preparation  for  the  then  forthcoming  publication  of  the  Collections  of  tlie  Vermont 
Historical  Society.  When  Mr.  Oilman  retired  from  business  in  1868  he  could  follow 
the  Ijciit  of  his  mind  and  lie  soon  became  a  student  of  New  England  history,  his 
own  inclination  receiving  added  impetus  from  the  zeal  of  his  friend.  He  marked 
out  his  own  line,  however,  and  it  was  a  new  one  ;  and  on  it  he  made  his  book. 

With  ample  means  at  his  command,  as  well  as  knowledge  of  books  and  love  of 
them,  he  for  many  years  took  delight  in  gathering  a  library  rich  in  local  history, 
till,  after  the  manner  of  many  of  those  whose  pleasure  is  in  acquiring  as  well  as 
having  rare  books,  he  sold  a  large  part  of  his  collection,  but  through  life  kept  add- 
ing to  the  choice  library  which  he  retained. 

In  1874,  the  year  after  Mr.  Reed's  death,  Mr.  Oilman  became  librarian  of  the 
Vermont  Historical  Society  and  continued  in  this  position  until  he  declined  a 
re-election  in  ISSl.  It  was  while  he  was  librarian  of  this  society  tliat  he  mo.st  zealr 
onsly  labored  upon  the  matter  presented  in  the  following  pages.  It  was  a  task 
involving  infinite  pains  and  work  and  was  Tiever  ending.  He  began  printing  liis 
Bibliograi)hy  of  Vermont  in  the  Anjus  and  Patriot,  January  S9,  187!»,  and  the 
printing  continued  to  Jnne  9,  1880.  He  had  meantime  gathered  much  additional 
matter,  which  was  published  in  the  same  paper  in  the  issues  immediately  after,  as  a 
supplement  to  the  Bibliography.     The  printing  of  the  supplement  was  concluded  in 


iNTJiODUCTION.  v 

the  issue  for  September  22,  1880.  But  to  near  the  time  of  liis  death  in  1889  Mr. 
Gilman  sought  and  found  new  material  and  added  it  in  manuscript  to  what  he  iiad 
printed  in  tlie  two  years  named  The  copy,  in  print  and  manuscript  coml)ined, 
became  tiie  property  of  his  widow  and  at  her  decease,  that  of  their  daughter,  the 
wife  of  Rev.  Henry  Irving  Cuslnnan,  of  Providence,  K.  I.  Tiie  generous  disposition 
made  of  it  by  tliem  is  set  forth  in  tlicir  letter,  and  the  act  of  1894  made  provision 
for  this  publication. 

lion.  George  Grenville  Benedict,  best  qualilicd  of  all  men  for  the  task,  was 
selected  to  edit  the  work.  Mr.  Thomas  L.  Wood,  assistant  state  librarian,  had  col- 
lected many  additional  titles  of  Vernumt  hooks  and  these  he  freely  placed  at  the 
disposal  of  the  editor.  Mr.  Benedict  himself  has  furnished  503  titles  and  73  bio- 
graphical sketches,  and  has  made  some  hundreds  of  additions  to  the  biographical 
notes  and  mimerous  additions  to  the  ii.st  of  newspapers  given  under  the  head  of 
"  Printing  in  Vermont."  But,  much  as  has  been  added,  the  addition  and  the  work 
of  making  it  only  emphasize  the  research  aiid  labor  of  Mr.  Gilman  in  creating  tlio 
great  body  of  the  work,  and  his  wisdom  in  planning  the  whole  of  it;  for  all  addi- 
tions have  been  upon  the  lines  marked  and  followed  by  him.  Mr.  Benedict,  with 
the  knowledge  brought  to  him  l)y  editing  the  book,  pays  tribute  to  "  the  vast  amount 
of  work  and  care  which  Mr.  Gilman  gave,  for  so  many  years,  to  the  collection  and 
annotation  of  the  titles,"  and  adds  :  "I  liave,  as  you  know,  spent  many  months  of 
labor  in  preparing  the  Bibliography  for  publication.  *  *  Perhaps  in  justice 
to  myself  (and  to  Mr.  Gilman)  I  ought  to  have  bracketed  the  more  important  addi- 
tions I  have  made;  l)ut  I  have  not  done  so.  It  is  Mr.  Gilman's  Bibliograpiiy,  sim- 
ply edited  by  myself,  with  so  much  of  care  and  labor  as  I  could  afford  to  give  to  it." 

Mr.  Gilman's  work  will  commend  itself;  and  best  to  those  who  know  best  and 
most  concerning  the  men  of  whom  he  wrote  aiid  what  they  did.  He  would  not 
want  much  said  of  it  here  or  of  himself,  for  he  was  a  man  of  affairs  and  not  of 
words  unless  they  were  words  that  recorded  some  historical  fact. 

In  Ijusiness  he  was  a  merchant,  in  politics  a  democrat,  and  in  religion  a  spiritual- 
ist ;  and  as  to  all  his  convictions  he  was  decided  and  outspoken.  He  was  a  leader 
among  his  fellows  and  was  prominent  and  energetic  in  all  Iiis  undertakings.  It 
should  be  noted  that  his  election  as  representative  of  Montpelier  to  the  House  of 
Representatives  in  1874-,  was  as  a  democrat  in  a  strongly  repuliliean  town,  and  that 
he  was  prominent  in  the  councils  of  his  party  wherever  he  resided.  A  hap])y  fam- 
ily and  social  life  were  his,  and  they  count  most  of  all. 

Marcus  Davis  Gilman  was  born  iti  Calais,  Vermont,  January  28,  1820.  He 
was  a  son  of  Dr.  John  Taylor  Gilman,  and  a  grand-son  of  Jonathan  Gihnan. 
Jonathan  Gilman  was  born  in  Gilinanton,  New  Hampshire,  May  31,  I7t!3 ;  mar- 
ried Susannah  Dudley,  November  9,  1783;  moved  toVershire,  Vermont,  in  179C, 
remaining  there  until  1817,  when  he  went  to  live  with  hie  son  Joiin  in  Calai.s, 
making  his  home  there  until  his  death,  December  5,  1824. 


vi  INTRODUCTION. 

Dr.  John  Taj'lor  Gilman  was  born  in  Gilmanton,  Jnly  24,  1791  ;  was  a  grad- 
uate of  Dartmoutli  Medical  College  in  the  class  of  1814,  and  began  practice  at 
East  Calais  in  ISlo,  being  the  iirst  physician  resident  in  Calais.  He  married  Ruth 
Curtis  (who  was  the  daughter  of  Col.  Caleb  Curtis  and  Polly  Davis  Curtis  of 
Calais,  and  a  grand- daughter  of  Rev.  Caleb  Curtis  of  Charlton,  IMass.),  and  they 
had  two  children,  Marcus  Davis  Gilman  and  John  Melvin  Gilman,  the  latter  of 
whom  studied  law  with  Heaton  &  Reed  in  Montpelier,  and  now  lives  in  St.  Paul, 
Minnesota.  Dr.  Gilman  died  at  East  Calais,  February  10,  1825.  His  widow  mar- 
ried Nathaniel  Eaton  in  1829,  and  died  in  Middlesex,  Vermont,  July  28,  ISOC,  at 
the  home  of  her  son,  Mr.  Gilman's  half-brother,  Caleb  Curtis  Eaton.  Nathaniel 
Eaton,  by  his  first  wife,  Ruth  Bridgman,  was  the  father  of  Dorman  Bridgman 
Eaton  (of  Civil  Service  Reform  fame)  and  Ruth  Eaton ;  and  Marcus,  until  fifteen 
years  old,  lived  at  his  step-father's  on  a  farm  in  Calais. 

He  then  came  to  Montpelier  and  entered  the  store  of  Baldwin  &  Scott  as  a 
clerk,  remaining  with  them  until  he  became  of  age,  when  he  went  to  Northfield, 
Vermont,  and  began  his  mercantile  career  as  a  member  of  the  firm  of  White,  Gil- 
man &  Co.  After  two  years  in  Northfield  he  returned  to  Montpelier,  where  he 
for  two  years  was  a  member  of  the  firm  of  Ellis,  Wilder  k,  Co.  Mr.  Gilman's 
school  education  was  obtained  in  the  common  schools  in  Calais  and  at  the  Washing- 
ton County  Grammar  School  in  Montpelier.  He  left  the  Washington  County 
Grammar  School  to  enter  the  store  of  Baldwin  &  Scott.  He  boarded  in  the  home 
of  the  head  of  the  firm,  Daniel  Baldwin,  while  working  in  Montpelier.  Mr. 
Gilman  married,  at  Montpelier,  May  10,  1843,  Maria  Malleville  Baldwin,  a  daugli- 
ter  of  Daniel  Baldwin  and  Emily  Wheelock  Baldwin  and  a  grand-daughter  of  the 
first  president  of  Dartmouth  College.  In  1845  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Gilman  moved  to 
Chicago,  where  Mr.  Gilman  was  for  twenty-three  years,  the  remainder  of  his  busi- 
ness life,  a  merchant.  While  in  Chicago  he  was  a  member  of  three  successive 
firms,  M.  D.  Gilman  &  Co.,  Gilman  &  Grannis,  and  Gilman,  Grannis  &  Farwell. 
His  business  career  was  very  successful.  In  1855  he  built  on  Michigan  Avenue 
what  was  then  characterized  as  the  most  costly  and  in  many  respects  the  most 
elegant  residence  in  Chicago. 

Mr.  Gilman  retired  from  business  in  1868,  and  for  the  next  three  years  he  and 
liis  wife  lived  at  Riverside  in  Newton,  Massachusetts.  They  moved  to  IMontpelier 
in  the  fall  of  1871,  where  they  converted  the  Daniel  Baldwin  homestead,  now  No. 
1,  Baldwin  Street,  into  a  new  and  costly  residence.  This  was  their  homo  during 
the  remainder  of  their  lives. 

Mr.  Gilman  died  in  Montpelier,  January  5,  1889,  and  his  widow  died  in 
Providence,  Rhode  Island,  May  18,  1892.  They  are  buried,  with  their  children  and 
three  grand-children,  in  the  Gilman- Cushman  lot  in  Green  Mount  Cemetery, 
Montpelier. 

The  children  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Gilman  were  :

(1)  John  Baldwin  Oilman,  ^I.  D.,  who  was  horn  in  Chicago,  July  5,  1847, 
and  died  in  Montpclier,  May  18,1873.  He  graduated  at  Harvard  in  18fi8,  and 
afterwards  studied  medicine  in  Germany  and  at  the  Boston  Medical  Oollcge.  In 
the  Franco-German  war,  1870-71,  he  served  as  assistant  surgeon  in  the  Prussian 
army,  and  at  the  close  of  his  service  received  the  decoration  of  the  Iron  Cross. 
After  the  close  of  that  war  lie  completed  his  studies  in  Boston,  and  in  the  fall  of 
1871  began  practice  in  Topeka,  Kansas.  Exposure  and  overwork  in  an  epidemic 
brought  upon  him  a  severe  sickness,  which  developed  into  quick  consumption,  and 
in  April,  1873,  he  came  to  the  family  home  in  Montpclier,  where  he  spent  the  last 
few  weeks  of  his  life. 

(2)  Emily  Eliza  Gilman,  born  in  Chicago,  June  10,  18-i9  ;  married  in  Chicago 
Rev.  Henry  Irving  Cnshman,  April  13,  1868.  Their  children  were  (1)  Mary  Alice, 
born  in  Boston,  April  27,  1869  ;  died  in  Providence,  R.  I.,  June  18, 1877.  (2)  Ruth 
Gilman,  born  in  Newton,  Mass.,  May  29,  1870 ;  married  "William  Gardner 
Anthony,  February  17,  1896,  at  Providence,  R.  I.  (3)  Robert,  born  in  Boston, 
September  18,  1872.  (4)  Marcus  Gilman,  born  in  Montpclier,  July  25,  1875;  died 
in  Providence,  R.  I.,  July  18,  1877.  (5)  Earl  Baldwin,  born  in  Providence,  R.  I., 
May  6,  1878 ;  died  in  Providence,  R.  I.,  May  25,  1878.  (6)  Albert  Henry,  born  in 
Providence,  R.  I.,  Se)>teraber  26,  1880.  Mrs.  Cushman  died  at  LamandaPark,  Los 
Angeles  County,  California,  March  14,  1895. 

(3)  Sarah  Alice  Gilman,  born  in  Chicago,  March  21,  1851  ;  died  in  Chicago, 
March  19,  1853. 

(4)  Marcus  Edward  Gilman,  born  in  Chicago,  June  26,  1853  ;  died  in  Chi- 
cago, November  9,  1853. 

This  introduction,  how^ever  brief,  should  not  conclude  without  a  word  of 
tribute  to  Mrs.  Cushman,  who  made  gift  to  the  State  of  her  father's  work  in  its 
behalf.  In  her  early  married  life  in  Boston,  while  her  husband  was  Dr.  Miner's 
associate,  and  in  Dr.  Cuslanan's  long  pastorate  in  Providence,  her  lovely  character 
was  his  most  efficient  help  in  pastoral  work  and  influence.  Seeking  a  milder 
climate  in  hope  of  staying  the  progress  of  New  England's  most  insidious  disease 
she  died  in  Southern  California,  March  14,  1895.  Her  t)urial  was  in  Green  Mount 
Cemetery  from  the  Gilman  homestead  in  IMontpelier.  It  is  right  that  those  to 
whom  she  was  unknown  who  read  this  book  should  hero  read  what  all  who  knew 
her  knew  that  she  was  the  exemplar  of  what  is  beautiful,  good  and  pure — of  true 
womanhood,  wifehood  and  motherhood.

This  singular  book  is  the  rarest  of  Allen's  publications 
and  IS  remarkable  as  being  the  first  work  published  in 
America  111  direct  opposition  to  the  Christian  religion  as 
has  been  alleged.  An  abridgement  of  it  was  published  in 
New  York  in  1S36,  with  the  following  title  :  "Reason  the 
only  Oracle  of  Man  ;  or  a  Compendious  System  of  Natural 
Religion.  By  Col.  Ethan  Allen.  Published  by  G.  W  and 
A.  J.  Matsell,  94  Chatham  St.,  New  York,  1836."  12  mo 
pp.  106,  including  table  of  contents  and  index. 

"The  first  edition  of  this  work  was  printed  by  Mr  Has- 
"'^i''  o' Bennmeton,  Vt.  Not  long  after  its  publication,  a 
part  of  the  edition,  comprising  the  entire  of  several  signa- 
tures, was  accidentally  consumed  by  fire;  whether  Mr 
Haswell  deemed  this  fire  a  judgment  upon  him  for  having 
printed  the  work  or  not,  is  unknown— but  the  fact  is  he 
soon  after  committed  the  remainder  of  the  edition  to  the 
flames,  andjoined  the  Methodist  connection;  so  that  but 
lew  copies  were  circulated."— Introduction  to  MatseU's 
Edition,  p.  I.— Sabin. 

Mr.  MatseU's  story  is  a  romance,  so  far  as  Mr  Haswell 
having  committed  any  part  of  the  edition  to  the  flames  is 
concerned;  it  is  true  that  the  entire  edition  with  the  ex- 
ception of  about  thirty  copies,  was  destroyed  by  an  acci- 
dental fire,  said  by  one  authority  to  have  "been  caused  by 
"gn'n'ng,  so  that  the  work  is  now  exceedingly  scarce 

The  liberal  views  contained  in  the  Oracle  of  Reason  so 
generally  censured  and  misunderstood  at  the  time  of  pub- 
lication, if  put  up  in  the  dress  of  to-day,  might  become  as 
popular  as  numerous  publications  universally  accepted 
by  the  masses  of  readers.  An  hundred  years  have  enlarged 
and  greatly  harmonized  the  religions  of  enlightened 
people.  "

tion  the  following  extracts  from  the  able  note  by  Mr. 
Dawsou  prefaced  to  the  work  : 

"Aiuoiig  those  who  have  become  distiuguislied  in  the 
United  States,  few  have  been  more  seriously  misrepre- 
sented than  Hthan  Allen,  •  *  misrepresentation  has 
extended  over  his  character  and  conduct,  as  a  man  and  a 
citizen,  •  •  and  the  opinions  on  religious  subjects 
which  he  is  known  to  have  entertained  and  published  to 
the  world.  Without  noticing,  in  this  place,  other  subjects 
concerning  which  Ethan  Allen  has  been  thus  misrepre- 
sented, we  may  be  allowed  to  refer  to  the  opinions  on 
religious  subjects— opinions  which  have  been  very  fre- 
quently represented  as  of  the  most  obnoxious  type  of  infi- 
delity, etc.  »  •  •  The  peculiar  doctrines  which  Col. 
Alien  published  through  the  medium  of  the  Oracle  of 
Reason,  as  its  author  had  reasonably  supposed  soon 
brought  upon  him  the  reproaches  of  many  of  those  who 
read  or  profes.sed  to  rearl  them;  aud  from  that  time  to  the 
present  we  imagine  this  work  has  ser\'ed  as  the  founda- 
tion on  which  have  been  constructed  the  greater  number 
ol  the  misrepresentations  of  his  opinions  ou  religious 
and  other  subjects."  «  *  •  *  Soon  after  the  publi- 
cation of  the  uracles.  Col.  Allen  discovered,  or  supposed  he 
discovered,  one,  at  least,  of  those  'errors,'  which  he 
was  evidently  prepared  to  find  therein;  and  agreeably  to 
the  promi.se  he  had  publicly  made  in  the  premce  to  that 
volume,  he  promptly  proceeded,  as  best  he  could,  to 
'rescind'  that  error,  and  present  in  its  stead  what  he 
conceived  to  be  a  purer  ana  better  doctrine. 

The  'error'  to  wnich  we  allude  is  found  in  Chapter  II, 
Section  VIII,  page  94  of  the  Oracles,  and  concerns  the 
'essence  of  the  Soul,'  etc.,  *  *  and  to  correct  the  error 
into  which  he  supposed  he  had  fallen.  Col.  Allen  pre- 
pared, with  evidently  great  care,  an  Appendix  to  the 
Oracles,  explanatorj'  of  his  latest  opinions  on  that 
subject. 

The  Appendix  was  intended  to  be  published  at  a 
future  day  when  it  [wouldj  not  infringe  ou  [its  au- 
thor's] fortune  or  present  living;  but  so  far  as  we  can 
learn  it  was  never  published  until  the  present  time.  It  is 
a  manuscript,  evidently  in  the  handwriting  of  its  author, 
divided  into  an  Introduction  and  four  distinct  Sections, 
extending  over  eighty  pages  of  foolscap;  but  the  letter  to 
Doctor  Gale,  if  it  was  ever  attached  to  it,  which  is  doubt- 
ful, has  disappeared. 

The  subject  of  that  Appendix,  in  itself  is  scarcely  such 
an  one  as  would  eutitle  it  to  admission  iuto  The  Histori- 
cal Magazine;  but  its  author's  position  before  the  world, 
as  one  of  the  founders  of  the  State  of  Vermout,  and  the 

f)urpo.se  for  which  it  was  evidently  written  induced  our 
amented  friend,  Hon.  George  K.  Houghton,  of  St. 
Albans,  "Vermont,  to  offer  it  to  us,  ou  condition  that  we 
would  publish  it  in  that  work,  and  appropriate,  from  the 
anticipated  profits  arising  from  its  publication,  a  desig- 
nated sum  toward  the  erection  of  a  monument  to  the 
memory  of  the  author  of  the  Essay — promising  at  the 
same  time,  on  his  part,  as  an  inducement  for  us  to  uuder- 
take  what  was  not  an  agreeable  duty,  to  prepare  for  it  an 
appropriate  prefatory  note,  in  order  that  the  publication 
of  such  a  paper  might  be  made  as  agreeable  as  possible 
to  the  readers  of  the  Magazine  and  as  remunerative  as 
possible  to  ourself. 

The  death  of  our  friend,  soon  after,  deprived  those  who 
have  survived  him  of  the  pleasure  aud  iustniction  which 
the  promised  note  from  his  pen  would  undoubtedly  have 
secured  to  them,  and  the  duty  has  devolved  upon  us  to 
perform,  for  ourself,  as  best  we  may,  the  service  which 
he  undertook  to  do  for  us,  and,  in  this  brief  and  simple 
Note  to  introduce  what  will  be  welcomed,  in  many  quar- 
ters, as  a  paper  of  unusual  interest,  while  in  others  it 
will  be  rcgartfed  only  as  a  literary  or  theological  curi- 
osity."

This  volume  includes  a  resume  of  the  first,  with  addi- 
tions, iticluding  the  Appendix. 

In  the  l.'itter  part  of  1S02,  about  160  pages  of  volume  2  of 
the  Olive  liranch  w.as  printed  at  Burlington,  Vt.;  but  it  is 
doubtful  if  many  copies  got  into  circulation.  We  quote 
from  Mr.  Allen's  "Statements,"  1.S07 :  "In  the  latter 
part  of  1802  thcCloimant  resolved  on  publishing  a  second 


volume  of  the  Olive  Branch,  at  Burlington,  in  Vermont; 
much  pains  was  tak^  by  a  conspiracy  against  kim  to  pre- 
vent the  printing  of  it  ;  but  he  proceeded  to  print  about 
160  pages,  taken  principalh'  from  the  first  volume,  when 
the  press  was  stopped  until  the  author  could  grain  time  to 
write  the  other  parts,  which  he  accomplished  iu  1803,  and 
delivered  over  the  Manuscript  to  the  printer  who  after 
perusing  it.  gave  the  terms  for  which  he  would  procure 
the  paper  and  complete  the  printing  ;  the  Claimant  fur- 
nished the  whole  of^the  money."  Mr.  Allen  then  took  a 
long  journey  on  horseback  for  his  health,  and  returning 
in  January,  1S04,  found  that  the  printer  had  neglected  to 
print  any  more  of  the  book,  and  with  difficulty  he  recov- 
ered the  manuscript." 

In  a  foot  note  Mr.  Allen  says:  "It  is  to  be  observed, 
that  in  Vermont  a  powerful  combination  had  formed 
against  the  Claimant,  which  was  thought  influenced  the 
powers  of  the  State.  When  Mr.  Allen  returned  (to  Burl- 
ington) he  was  furnished  with  four  pistols  and  a  loaded 
whip,  well  charged  ;  these  measures  were  said  to  make 
some  cousternatiou  among  the  laud  thieves  of  Vermont, 
and  while  different  measures  were  projecting  to  arrest 
and  detain  him,  he  packed  up  the  papers  necessary  to 
compose  the  Olive  Branch,  and  left  Vermont." 

Mr.  Allen  in  the  "Statements,"  gives  an  amusing  ac- 
count of  the  futile  efforts  to  arrest  and  imprison  him 
while  attendiug  the  Legislature  at  Rutland,  in  1.S04.  Mr. 
Allen  owned  large  tracts  of  lands  about  Burliugtouand  in 
other  parts  of  the  State,  but  becoming  involved  pecunia- 
rily through  the  loss  of  the  Olive  Branch  and  its  cargo, 
the  "  land  thieves  of  Vermont,"  as  he  calls  them,  during 
his  long  absence  in  Europe  combined  together  and 
stripped  him  of  his  valuable  possessions,  and  he  was 
forced  to  leave  the  State,  never  to  return.  We  do  not 
think  the  great  services  rendered  to  Vermont  by  Mr. 
Allen  have  ever  been  fully  appreciated,  he  appearing  to 
have  been  overshadowed  111  history  by  the  coarser  career 
of  his  brother  Ethan.  We  trust  that  some  pen  will  yet  do 
him  justice.  For  a  brief  sketch  of  Mr.  Allen  see  "Gov- 
ernor and  Council"  of  Vermont,  pp.  115-117,  of  Vol.  i. 
Mr.  Walton  thus  closes  the  sketch  :  "  his  skill  as  states- 
man and  diplomatist,  his  grand  designs  for  the  promotion 
of  learning  (  he  was  the  founder  of  the  University  of  Ver- 
mont,) and  the  development  of  the  material  resources  of 
the  State,  will  forever  stand,  a  monument  more  brilliant 
than  brass  and  more  lasting  than  marble."  See  also  me-

I  am  indebted  to  Mrs.  P.  L.  Hopkins,  of  East  Berk- 
shire. Vt.,  a  daughter  of  Mr.  Bailey,  for  the  following 
sketcli  oflier  father  : 

Mr.  Bailey  was  born  in  LandaflT,  N.  H..  in  1787.  was  the 
youngest  son  of  Major  Asa  Bailey,  "a  man  of  superior 
mtellect,  perseverance  and  energy."  and  Abigail  Abbott, 
a  woman  of  great  moral  strength  and  "de\'Oted  piety." 
She  was  a  daughter  of  Dea.  James  Abbott,  of  CouLord, 
N.  H.,  a  descendant  of  George  Abbott,  the  venerable 
ancestor  who  emigrated  from  Vorkshire,  Kngland,  1640, 
and  was  one  of  the  first  settlers  in  Andover,  Mass.,  164,^. 

Sterling  piety  seems  to  have  been  the  marked  charac- 
ter of  the  Abbott  family.  It  is  said  of  one  that  "he  was 
a  puritan  in  faith  and  conduct."  (_)f  another,  "he  had  ten 
sons  and  two  daughters  trained  up  in  the  co\eiiant." 
Mrs.  Bailey  too,  "through  her  unwearied  faithfulness  was 
enabled  to  see  all  of  her  chiidren  hopefulb-  pious,"  To 
her  faithful  efforts  and  to  his  early  consecration  in  bap- 
tism. Phinehas  attributed  his  after  course  of  life. 

When  Phinehas  was  four  years  old  his  mother  was  left 
with  only  six  hundred  dollars  to  provide  for  her  younger 
children.  When  tive  years  old  he  went  to  live  with  an  older 
sister  on  a  large  farm;  here  he  exercised  his  ingenuitv 
in  constructing  little  mill  works  in  the  brook,  and  odd 
little  traps  for  mice. 

As  the  boy  bears  the  type  of  the  man,  so  Phinehas  in 
chiUiliood  often  evinced  tiie  courage,  tjravery  and  in- 
genuity that  characterized  him  afterwards  ;  and  his  art- 
less attractive  ways  "foreshowed  a  gentle  heart."  When 
a  little  hoy  he  was  sent  with  a  little  sister  into  the  woods 
after  tlie  cow.  He  returned  with  the  story  that  "a  great 
black  dog  came  close  up  to  liis  sister  in  the  woods  and  he 
took  a  big  stick  and  diove  hiui  off."  The  next  morning 
a  few  men  went  out  and  killed  a  large  bear  near  the  place 
where  the  children  had  seen  him.  Years  after  when  tell- 
ing the  storv  to  his  own  children,  and  being  asked  "why 
the  bear  did  not  eat  bim  and  his  little  sister  up?"  he 
replied,  "my  mother's  ^>a »■(•»,?  kept  the  hear  from  hurting 
us." 

At  one  time  going  along  the  road  alone,  when  a  small 
boy,  he  was  suddenly  overcome  with  love  and  gratitude 
lor  one  of  his  older  sisters ;  and  he  knelt  right  down  by 
the  roadside  and  thanked  the  Lord  for  giving  him  such  a 
/irt//rf.vow^' sister  !  Later  in  life  be  was  often  as  suddenly 
moved  bv  the  same  sweet  impulse — to  kneel  and  thank 
the  Lord  for  some  good  gift. 

At  fourteen  years  of  age  he  was  apprenticed  to  Mr. 
John  Osgood,  of  Haverhill,  N.  H.  At  the  expiration  of 
his  apprenticeship  he  settled  in  Chelsea,  Vt.,  and  formed 
a  co-partnership  with  a  man  having  the  same  trade  as  bis 
own,  who  furnished  the  stock  and  tools,  whilg  Phine- 
has furnished  the  labor.  While  living  in  Chelsea 
Mr.  Bailey  united  with  the  Congregational  church,  and 
also  married  there. 


From  the  time  of  his  conversion  to  the  Christian  relig- 
ion, when  about  eighteen  years  of  age,  Mr.  Bailev  felt  a 
strong  desire  to  preach  tiie  gospel ;  but  the  want  of 
proper  education  and  means  to  obtain  It,  seemed  fatal 
obstacles  in  the  way.  He  found  the  barrier  between  him 
and  the  ministry  growing  more  and  more  insurmountable 
every  day. 

Very  early  in  his  religious  experience  he  formed  the 
resolution  that  "always  in  public  or  private  he  would  im- 
pro\e  every  opportunity  to  recommend  the  religion  of 
Christ."  In  the  large  village  of  Haverhill  he  went  from 
house  to  house  and  prayed  and  exhorted  in  nearly  every 
family. 

At  one  time  he  pressed  into  a  bar-room  and  exhorted 
those  who  were  swearing  to  desist.  One  of  the  men  said 
"that  was  no  place  to  preach!"  another  said  "that  Mr. 
Bailey  had  as  good  a  right  to  preach  there  as  thev  h.id 
to  swear."  Several  swearers  never  used  another  profane 
word  in  his  hearine. 

Again  in  Pranconia,  N.  H.,he  went  into  a  store  to  re- 
pair a  watch,  but  bearing  a  man  in  the  store  using  very 
profane  lauguagL-.  he  gathered  up  his  tools  and  went  to  a 
private  house  and  asked  for  a  table,  saying,  that  a  man 
in  yonder  store  was  so  profane  he  could  not  stay  there. 
Uf  course  the  remark  was  quickly  carried  back  to  the 
store.  This  \  ilhige  was  chiefly  owned  by  a  manufactur- 
ing company.  Tlie  agent  was  greatly  concerned  for  the 
reputation  of  the  place,  and  was  unwilling  to  have  it  said 
that  the  inhabitants  were  so  profane  that  a  stranger 
could  not  stay  in  the  place;  and  finally  through  the 
agent  the  profane  man  apologized.  Mr.  Halley  was  soon 
solicited  to  help  settle  a  diihculty  between  a  Baptist 
brother  and  a  deacon.  The  agent  much  interested  col- 
lected witnesses  for  the  trial  while  Mr.  Bailey  went  to 
each  party  and  made  them  agree  tnmect.an<i  by  the  time 
the  agent  had  got  his  witnesses  and  people  together, 
there  was  no  need  of  any  trial ;  the  brethren  confessed  to 
each  other  with  penitence  and  tears ;  a  prayer  meeting 
followed,  and  the  result  of  this  incident  was  a  revival  of 
religion.  Such  were  some  of  Mr.  Bailey's  efforts  to  serve 
his  Redeemer  while  at  work  in  his  humble  calling. 

In  iHiS  there  was  a  glorious  revival  in  Chelsea,  num- 
bering about  seventy  converts  besides  many  enlivened 
Christians.  In  the  midst  of  this  work  of  grace  a  ball 
was  appointed  ;  one  of  the  managers  being  a  voung  man 
who  had  been  .seriously  impressed.  Christians  felt  that 
such  a  gathering  would  hinder  the  Master's  work,  and 
assembled  the  same  e\ening  for  the  purpose  of  trying  to 
.'.A'/' the  festivities  by  jjrayer.  lust  as  the  praving  and 
dancing  began,  there  came  up  a  terrible  thunder  storm. 
The  festive  music  and  the  thunder  rose  higher  and 
higher,  "but  above  and  beyond  all  rose  the  low  voice  of 
prayer,  reaching  even  to  the  throne  of  (iod."  In  a  few 
minutes  the  tlance  was  hushed  and  heard  no  more  that 
night.  The  next  day  Mr.  Bailev  was  accosted  with, 
'■  Well,  you  got  together  last  nigiit  to  pray  that  we  all 
might  be  struck  with  lightning,  hut  you  didn't  make  out 
to  kill  anyliody!" 

Again  there  was  to  be  a  grand  county  ball  in  Newbury, 
and  again  Christians  deternuiied  to  meet  it  with  praver; 
and  again  the  ball  was  a  complete  failure.  The  hotel 
keeper  complained  bitterly  to  oneof  the  praying  brethren 
of  the  great  loss  t/wy  had  caused  him.  Who  would  think 
of  complaining  of  the  y^/dii;/^'  htethren.  for  the  failure  of 
a  bail  in  1879!  There  are  many  accoHuts  relating  to  his 
earnest  "gospel  work"— as  we  should  call  it  now — which 
seem  of  great  interest  In  these  later  drowsy  times;  wc 
will  mention  but  one  more. 

In  one  of  the  towns  adjoining  Chelsea  the  church  was 
chicHy  composed  of  old  people.  The  younger  seemed  to 
think  that  religion  was  not  made  for  them.  Some  of  the 
live  Christians  of  Chelsea  sent  word  that  they  were  going 
there  to  attend  a  meeting.  They  accordingly  set  out,  a 
company  of  gospel  workers,  inauy  of  whom  wer^;  young 
converts;  one,  a  little  girl  only  twelve  years  of  age  and 
very  diffident.  Some  said  "  why  not  take  some  one  who 
can  talk?"  On  the  way  Mr.  Bai'ley  said  tn  her,  "  If  Cod 
gives  you  a  message  to  those  careless  sinners,  you  will 
try  and  deliver  it,  will  you?"  She  replied  "I  will  try," 
The  result  of  this  gospel  visit  was  a  revival  in  that 
place. 

From  the  time  of  that  revival  Mr.  Bailey  felt  an  ardent 
desire  to  preach  the  gospel.  Night  and  day  It  was  on  his 
mind;  but  he  saw  no  way  of  extricating  htinself  from 
debt  and  supporting  his  family  while  stmiying  to  fit  him- 
self for  so  great  a  work.  If  this  preat  desire  of  bis  heart, 
to  be  in  the  ininistr>',  was  indeed  the  call  of  CiO<I, 
what  had  he  to  do  but  to  ask  for  the  needed  help 
and  receive  ?  He  did  ask  that  if  it  was  his  tluty  tobccome 
a  minister  he  might  be  freed  from  debt  and  furnished  the 
means  of  obtaining  an  education.  About  this  time  he  ac- 
cidentally found  an  old  system  o(  stenography,  and  accord- 
ing to  his  characteristic  of  searching  out  everything 
there  was  to  be  (onnd  out.  he  began  to  study  the  little

pamphlet,  never  dreaming  that  in  this  would  be  found 
the  answer  to  his  prayers.  He  studied  the  book  until  be 
discovered  the  beauty  of  the  idea  of  stenography,  and 
enough  to  see  the  faults  which  suggested  the  thought 
of  a  system  on  an  entirely  original  plan — to  have  one 
sound  for  every  If  ilt^y  undone  letter  for  every  sound — and 
he  worked  unceasingly  until  he  had  got  his  work  into  type 
and  print,  which  was  first  brought  out  in  1S19  in  Poultney, 
Vt.,  and  afterwards  it  went  through  many  editions.  Some 
time  previous  to  this  Mr.  Bailey  had  given  up  his  trade, 
and  depended  upon  teaching  the  higher  branches,  and 
after  his  system  of  short  hand  was  published  he  easily 
earned  from  sixty  to  a  hundred  dollars  per  month;  but 
he  only  looked  upon  it  as  the  steppingstone  to  something 
higher.  He  gained  access  to  dilTereiit  libraries  and 
bought  some  books  as  he  could,  stud>ing  all  of  his 
leisure  time.  He  went  to  Middlebury  and  was  assisted 
by  the  college  professors,  though  not  as  a  regular 
student. 

He  studied  Latin,  Greek  and  Hebrew,  logic,  rhetoric, 
and  nearly  all  of  the  studies  that  lie  between  the  A,  E,  C 
and  a  finished  education.  Though  he  could  never  boast 
of  a  college  education,  he  possessed  a  well  stored  mind; 
acquired  by  the  most  unaccountable  energ>"  and 
persistency.  His  acquisition  of  so  much  knowledge  was 
partly  owing  to  self-esteem,  and  a  will  to  conquer  ever>- 
thing  !  He  would  never  for  a  moment  admit  that  there 
was  anything  that  he  could  not  and  would  not  grasp.  In 
later  years  all  of  the  difficult  questions  and  problems 
that  could  be  found  were  brought  to  him  by  his  children, 
as  puzzles  ;  but  he  would  never  give  up  without  master- 
ing them.  By  teaching,  his  phonography  principally,  he 
was  enabled  to  cancel  his  debts  and  buy  more  books. 

Scott  Brown  in  the  •'Phonographic  Monthly,"  New 
York,  says  of  his  work  :  "Phinebas  Bailey  gives  in  his 
first  edition  published  in  1819,  as  complete  an  analysis  of 
the  elements  of  our  language  as  exists  in  the  works  of  any 
Phonetician,  and  more  complete  than  can  be  found  in  any 
lexicography.  No  consonant  element,  no  fine  shades  of 
vowel  sounds  have  been  discovered  and  presented  to  the 
public,  that  Mr.  Bailey  had  not  discovered  and  presented 
in  his  little  book  fifty-seven  years  ago,  away  up  among 
the  green  mountains  of  Old  Vermont.  There  is  not  a 
recognized  element  of  our  language  that  Mr.  Bailey  has 
not  furnished  with  a  sign  of  its  possessing  positive 
value." 

"We  do  not  know  that  Isaac  Pitman  ever  heard  of  Mr. 
Bailey  or  his  Phonetic  system,  so  that  both  men  may  de- 
serve equal  credit;  but  it  is  considerable  for  our  people 
to  be  proud  of,  that  in  the  practical  applicatiou  of  Phon- 
etics to  the  stenographic  representation  of  our  language. 
young  America  was  ahead  of  Old  England  eighteen  years. 
The  people  of  New  England,  especially  Vermont,  will 
feel  a  just  pride  in  this." 

Dr.  Julius  VValdemar  Zeibig,  in  his  "History  and  Liter- 
ature of  Stenography,"  recently  published,  has  given  to 
Mr.  Bailey  the  deserving  pla':e  of  priority  in  the  inven- 
tion of  Phonography. 

He  studied  theology  under  Rev.  Calvin  Noble,  of  Chel- 
sea, Vt.,  and  in  1S23,  was  licensed  to  preach  by 
the  Orange  Association  in  Thetford,  \'t.  He  preached 
his  first  sermon  in  the  town  of  Washington, 
and  soon  after,  hearing  of  a  vacant  pulpit  in  Berk- 
shire, slaried  for  that  place;  but  on  his  way  was 
detained  by  the  people  of  Richmond  and  Waterbury  and 
invited  to  preach  alternately  in  the  two  places  a  year. 
He  returned  for  his  family:  the  morning  arrived  for  the 
last  good-bye  to  friends,  and  the  last  tears  to  fall,  on  the 
threshold  of  the  little  place  that  had  been  their  home  for 
thirteen  years.  A  company  of  friends  gathered  around  the 
door  and  sang  a  verse  of  the  hymn,  "Pilgrims,  farewell." 
The  venerable  Mr.  Noble  grasped  the  young  brother's 
hand  and  with  his  parting  blessing  said,  "L'ntil  now  you 
have  had  ministers  and  teachers  to  lead  you  in  the  way 
ofhfe,  but  henceforth  you  are  to  lead  others." 

Mr.  Bailey  received  a  call  from  Waterbury  and  from 
Richmond  to  settle  ;  but  for  some  reason  preferred  to  go 
to  Berkshire.  In  September,  1S24.  he  was  ordained  over 
the  two  churches  of  East  and  West  Berkshire — the  first 
settled  minister  in  town. 

Here  belabored  arduously,  being  his  first  charge;  and 
he  being  the  first  pastor  the  church  ever  had,  they  were 
trusting  and  confiding  in  him.  During  his  pastorate  of 
ten  years,  sixty  were  added  to  the  chuich.  He  owed  his 
effectual  labors  greatly  to  his  pastoral  visits;  going  to 
every  house  in  the  course  of  the  year  for  the  purpose  of 
talking  with  each  individual  about  their  spiritual  wel- 
fare. His  labors  in  this  way  were  marked  with  many 
wonderful  conversions,  and  a  great  revival  in  1S31. 

His  idea  of  authority  was  implicit  obedience  "to  the 
powers  that  be"— to  parents,  teachers,  or  rulers.  Some- 
times he  administered  reproof  to  his  family,  or  to  his 
people  with  great  severity;  and  sometimes  with  a  little 
cunning  and  wit.     At  one  time  one  of  the  deacons  usually 


at  his  post,  was  absent  at  the  prayer  meeting, — it  being  a 
very  rainy,  windy  night  in  the  fall  of  the  year,  scarcely 
any  one  was  present.  After  all  the  brethren  who  were 
there  had  "done  their  duty,"  the  meeting  was  closed^ 
not  very  late  of  course,  and  the  few  went  home.  Mr. 
Bailey  took  his  tin  lantern  and  walked  a  mile  and  a  half 
up  hill  to  the  deacon's.  The  deacon  tremblingly  invited 
the  minister  to  sit  down,  for  now  he  expected  a  sharp 
reproof  or  the  "first  step  of  labor ;"  but  to  his  surprise  the 
minister  seemed  very  happy,  and  sat  down  by  the  cheer- 
ful old  fire-place  and  chatted  about  everything  but  the 
weather  and  the  meeting.  A  dish  of  the  deacon's  good 
apples  were  eaten,  a  pleasant  hour  slipped  by,  and  the 
minister  took  his  leave.  The  deacon  understood  very 
well  that  if  the  minister  could  go  there  to  call  and  not  hurt 
him,  he  could  go  to  prayer  meeting;  and  his  place  was 
not  vacant  again  for  so  trivial  a  cause  as  rain  and  tnud. 

After  a  while  Mr.  Bailey  thought  he  better  seek  a  new 
field  ;  it  might  be  better  for  the  people  and  better  for  him- 
self. There  were  a  few  inmiovable  hearts  that  possibly 
might  be  impressed  under  other  teachers,  and  they  were 
a  burden  npon  his  mind  ;  but  when  he  came  back  years 
afterwards  and  found  the  same  stationary  souls,  and  the 
church  scattered,  he  felt  that  he  erred  in  leaving  them 
when  he  did. 

In  1833,  he  asked  for  a  dimission,  and  was  finlly  dis- 
missed by  a  council.  He  then  removed  to  Beekmantown, 
N.  v.,  preached  four  years,  when  he  found  himself  dis- 
abled by  the  bronchitis,  Now  he  thought  was  the  time 
to  commence  an  undertaking  that  appears  to  have  been 
on  his  mind  for  some  years.  We  find  from  an  old  letter 
written  by  his  younger  son  from  Burlington  in  1834  that 
Mr.  Bailey  had  been  urging  him  to  come  home  and  print 
a  Bereaii  paper  with  him — the  son  was  a  printer  by  trade. 
The  son  says,  "I  hope  you  will  not  be  grieved  when  I  tell 
you  that  although  I  have  no  doubt  your  desire  of  having 
me  print  a  Biblical  paper  is  founded  on  the  purest  of  mo- 
tives for  doing  good,  yet  I  view  it  beyond  my  powerand 
limits  to  accomplish  it;  it  is  impossible!  'Count  the 
cost,'  is  a  good  maxim,  founded  on  reason  and  the  Bible  ; 
therefore  I  hope  you  will  not  think  of  so  extravagant  an 
undertaking." 

But  he  could  not  give  up  what  he  knew  would  be  such  a 
valuable  acquisition  in  teaching  the  Bible.  He  removed 
to  Essex,  N.  v.,  and  succeeded  in  getting  i\\Q  promises  of 
a  great  many  good  people  to  support  "A  weekly  paper 
devoted  to  the  study  of  the  Bible;"  and  some  gave  him  - 
money,  expressing  their  fears  at  the  same  time.  The 
oldest  son  was  persuaded  to  undertake  the  work  with 
him,  and  the  paper  was  issued,  "The  Berean  Guide,"  "A 
weekly  paper  devoted  to  the  study  of  the  Bible."  The 
design  was  to  have  all  Sabbath  Schools  and  families  pur- 
suing the  same  scripture  at  the  same  time.  This  as  far  as 
we  know,  was  the  first  advancement  of  this  beautiful 
idea.  The  Prospectus  says  :  "We  hope  to  render  assist- 
ance to  Bible  classes  by  furnishing  them  from  time  to 
time  with  interesting  questions  and  profitable  answers." 
This  grand  conception  was  too  early  for  those  times. 
Mr.  Bailey  coilld  not  be  made  to  believe  two  things; 
namely,  that  it  cost  a  great  deal  of  money  to  publish  a 
paper  for  one  object  alone,  like  that ;  and  that  people 
would  be  sIo7u  to  appreciate  and  support  it. 

In  view  of  all  the  Sunday  School  organs — and  some 
pretty  weak  ones — of  different  societies  that  find  abun- 
dant support  now,  we  sometimes  wonder  at  the  dealings 
of  Providence  that  could  not  so  order  such  an  undertak- 
ing to  prosper  even  forty-one  years  ago.  (?)  But  it  went 
down  as  hopeless,  in  a  very  short  time. 

Mr.  Bailey  then  went  to  preaching  again,  first  in  Ticon- 
deroga,  thenin  Hebron,  N.  V.  and  back  to  Berkshire  again 
in  1S45.  We  have  passed  hastily  over  the  years— the 
iiistory  of  his  own  family,  the  dark  days  of  suffering  and 
want,  over  the  (f^-t'Z  waters  of  atlliction  that  God  called 
him  to  pass  through,  as  if  to  see  how  much  human  na- 
ture could  endure,  or  to  "show  him  how  great  things  he 
must  suffer  for  His  sake  ;"  he  who  was  so  anxious  to  take 
up  Christ's  work  learned  the  same  lesson  that  Paul  did. 
Vet  in  those  darkest  days  he  could  often  rend  the  black- 
est cloud  by  orayer  ;  during  his  life  he  received  some  of 
the  most  wonderful  answers  to  prayer  that  have  ever 
been  recorded — prayer  for  house  and  home,  food  and 
raiment,  as  well  as  spiritual  blessings.  Prayer  for  daily 
bread  was  no  vain  petition  upon  his  lips.  He  had  un- 
limited faith  in  prayer. 

He  believed  that  in  some  cases  when  great  favors  are 
sought,  the  ear  of  heaven  must  be  reached  by  fasting  and 
prayer.  Thus  at  such  times  he  had  in  the  seclusion  of 
the  fireside  /<nnr7v  (asis  ;  and  in  times  of  coldness  and 
declension  in  the  church,  he  appointed  church  fasts. 

At  this  time  previous  to  Mr.  Bailey's  going  to  Berk- 
shire, llif  family  had  such  a  fast.  Mr.  Bailey  went  to 
New  ^'ork  and  on  his  way  home  he  spent  the  Sabbath  in 
Troy,  with  the  pastor  of  the  Free  church,  preaching  for 
him  half  of  the  day.    In  the   evening  he  went  into  coil-

ference  meeting  and  asked  for  prayer— that  he  miRlit  be 
directed  to  a  place  of  labor.  The  next  niorniiig  he  re- 
ceived a  note  from  a  lady,  contaiiiinE  a  small  present  and 
these  words,  "Go  where  God  directs,  do  what  He  bids 
thee,  and  He  will  bear  your  expenses."  It  seemed  like  a 
lieavenly  messaRc,  and  he  resolved  to  obey  it  literalU. 

On  his  way  home  from  Troy  he  fell  in  with  an  old  friend 
who  said  to  him.  "I  want  you  to  gu  to  Berkshire."  Mr. 
Bailey  replied  "I  will  go."  We  think  his  trials  and 
atHittioMS  were  never  afterward  as  great  as  in  the  pre- 
vious years.  He  remained  in  Berkshire  until  1S52,  when 
he  again  left. 

Mr.  Bailey  had  a  strong  will  and  great  force  of  char- 
acter which  necessarily  must  be  the  leader;  this  with  his 
eccentricities  gained  for  him  some  enemies.  In  liis 
theology  he  was  called  "more  Calvinistic  than  Calvin." 
He  wrote  2,700  sermons,  nor  did  he  ever  try  to  shy.  or 
cover  anyttiiiig  of  those  tougher  doctrines  of  the  Bible 
which  ministers  do  not  dare  so  much  as  read  in  the  pul- 
pit now.  Vet  under  his  administration  he  gathered  more 
converts  than  they  do  under  the  smooth,  galvanized, 
trumpery  preaLhing  of  1S79.  Many  of  his  so-called  ec- 
centricities, his  children  can  now  look  back  upon  with 
just  pride. 

From  Berkshire  he  removed  to  Albany,  Vt.,  and  pur- 
chased a  small  farm.  Here  he  spent  his  last  days  very 
happily;  and  here  hidden  away  among  the  mountains  of 
Vermont,  in  January.  1S61.  he  laul  down  his  cross  for  a 
glorious  crown.  He  was  carried  back  to  his  old  home 
and  buried  among  his  iirst  people.  As  we  bowed  very 
low  over  the  fro/en,  waiting  tomb,  where  terrors  cringe 
and  shiver  with  ice  and  cold,  we  could  see  and  believe  in 
the  resurrection  as  never  before — "The  body  sown  in 
corruption,  and  raised  in  incorruption,  sown  in  dishonor, 
and  raised  in  glory."  No  wonder  "the  women  turned 
from  the  sepulchre  with  great  joy,"  when  they  found  the 
grave  had  no  power  over  the  one  they  loved  so  well. 
Whether  we  choose  for  our  precious  dead  some  "dewy 
hiU"  mid  sun  and  warmth  and  flowers,  or  some  cave 
deep  and  dank  with  mould  ;  and  though  a  great  stone  be 
rolled  against  the  door,  it  matters  not;  we  know  "they 
are  not  there,  but  ha\e  risen  !" 

No  more  to  feel  life's  rude  winds  blow, 
t)r  griefs  that  chill  us  as  the  snow, 
Or  view  our  hopes  go  drifting  by, 
Oh  !  ne\er  more  to  sigh  or  weep — 
He  giveth  His  beloved  sleep.

1S7S.] 

"  In  addition  to  the  above  I  edited  and  published  "  77/r 
/mpar/rahs/,"  a  weekly  paper  in  Ciareniont,  N.  H.,  in 
1834-5;  and  for  four  years  was  joint  editor  and  publisher 
of  the  "Chrisiian  Messenger,"  a  folio,  and  the  "C/tn'sfian 
Ambassador**  R'lSvo.,  both  weekly  papers  in  New  York 
city. 

I  have  delayed  answering  till  now,  as  my  books  are  in 
Elgin,  wlicre  I  went  last  week  and  copied  the  titles.  I 
have  not  all  of  those  books  to  spare,  but  will  send  a  por- 
tion when  1  am  there  again  ;  1  forgot  that  you  desired 
copies  or  I  should  have  sent  them. 

I  add  a  brief  notice  of  my  early  life,  the  most  important 
portion,  the  foundation  of  any  man's  character  and  suc- 
cess. I  hope  you  wilt  not  regard  it  as  boastful  on  my  part. 
I  have  tried  to  be  modest.  Vou  will  use  it  as  shall  seem  to 
you  best." 

I-'raternally, 

WM.  S.  BALCH. 

William  Stevens  Balch  was  born  in  Andover,  Vt.,  April 
13,  1806.  lie  came  up.  like  most  sons  of  farmers  in  ob- 
scure towns,  at  hard  work  and  a  small  chance  for  an  edu- 
cation. He  attended  the  district  school  three  months 
in  summer  until  eight  years  old,  and  three  in  winter  till 
sixteen  ;  when.  ha\ing  mastered  all  studies  taught  in 
such  schools,  his  father  permitted  him  to  start  on  foot  for 
Reading,  to  study  with  Rev.  Mr.  l,ovelanil.  I-'our  miles 
from  home  he  stopped  to  warm  himself,  and  was  induced 
to  *'  take  a  school,"  at  $7.50  a  month  and  "  board  round." 
Eight  weeks  ended  the  engagement,  when  he  was  invited 
to  an  adjoining  district  to  fill  out  the  term  of  the  "master, 


turned  out,"  at  $8  a  month  !    The  next  summer  his  brother 
in  New  York  city  sent  for  him  to  assist  in  a  private  school 
— St.  John's  Academy ;  his  father  purchased  him  a  vest 
for  83  cents,  and  gave  him  $3,  all  he   could    raise  for  the 
journey.     He  laid  stone  wall  until  3  o'clock  p.  m.,  the  day 
before  leaving.     A  brother-in-law  took  him  to  the  top  ot 
the  Green   Mountain  in  Peru,  where   he  cut   a   cane   and 
started  into  the  world  on  foot,  as  far  as  Albany;  there  he 
engaged  passage  on  a  sloop  at  J3  for  the  city.     He  arrived 
there  so  shabby  in  his  dress  tliat  his  brother  went  next 
day  to  a  second  hand  shop  and  rigged  him  for  appear- 
ance in  the  streets.     He  remained  but  three  months.  The 
confinement   injured  his  health  ;   and  he  despised  what 
appeared  to  him  the  show  and  sham  of  city  life.      With- 
out consulting  his  brother  until  fully   resolved  to  return 
home  he  bought  a  passage  on  a  sloop  for  Albany,  leaving 
but  50  cents,  and  when  there  over  80  miles  from  home. 
At  Lansingburg  he  bought  a  loaf  of  bread  and  half  a  pound 
of   cheese,    all   he    had    to   eat  until    reaching    home. 
Tramps  were  not  in  fashion  in  those  days.     Two  nights 
at  a  shilling,  the  usual  price,  left   him    15  cents.     This 
journey  and   the  sight  and  air  of  his  native  hills  cured 
him,  and   he  at  once  engaged  in  the  last  scliool  of  the 
former  winter.     The  day  before  it  ended  he  was  request- 
ed to  fill  an  unexpired  term  in  Chester,  at  Sio  !    Such  an 
offer  he  could  not  reject.     His  father  did,  on  the  ground 
it  was  a  bad  school,  and  he  would  lose  what  reputation 
he  had  gained.     But  he  replied  that  he  had  agreed  to  go, 
and  if  he  did  his  best  he  could  not  be  blamed,  as  if  he 
broke  his  contract  by  not  trying.    His  father  consented, 
and  he  succeeded  to  the  full  satisfaction  of  all.     At  20  he 
was  again  invited  to  New  York,  where  he  taught  a  year. 
At  21   he  engaged  to  continue,  at  5150.     In  less  than  a 
month  a  schoolmate  came  to  the  city  seeking  a  place  and 
offering  to  loan  him  J25  for  three  years,  the  first  without 
interest.     The  offer  was  accepted,  and  satisfactory  to  all. 
With  that  sum  he  bought  Ins  tirstoulfit,  and  started  out  as 
a  lecturer  on  grammar,  by  the  recommetidationof  Daniel 
H.  Barnes,  thefoumder  of  the  high  school  system,  and  W. 
S.  Cadell,,  the  author  of   a  grammar.     His   first  attempt 
was    in  Poughkeepsie.    and   very  successful,    realizing 
enough  to    take    up    his    note    and     helo    him    on    his 
way,  also  a  laudatory  reconmiendation  (rom  the    chief 
men    of   the    place.       In    Hudson.    Greenbush,   Albany 
and    Troy    he    met   with    good    success.     In    Troy    he 
had    a    large    class,    and    gave    private     explanations 
to  Mrs.  Willard,  of  the  Female   Academy.      Returning 
home,  he  entered  the  study  of  Rev.  Mr.  Loveland,  to  pre- 
pare for  the  ministry.      In  September  an  older  preacher 
applied  for  fellowship  and  persuaded  him  to  submit  to  an 
examination  by  the  General  Convention  of  Saratoga.     A 
letter  was  given  him.    From  that  day  to  the  present  time 
Iiis  controlling  thought  and  work  have  been  devoted    to 
the  duties  of  his  \ocation  ;  not  in  the  role  of  a  sectarian, 
but  as  a  teacher    and   helper  of  his  fetlowmen,  on  the 
broad  principle  of  Universal  Love,  devoting  himself  to 
truth,  right  and  humanity,  but  never  to  creed  or  sect,  or 
rank,  when  they  came  into  conHict.    He  has  always  pre- 
ferred truth  in  another  to  error  in  himself.      From  secta- 
rian and  party  schemes  and   plannings  he  has   always 
kept  aloof.     When  asked  by  his  maternal  grandfather, 
an  Orthodox  deacon.   "  Why  he  had  decided   to   be  a 
preacher?"  "  To  help  make  the  world  better  and  hap- 
pier," was  his  reply.      The  old   man,  then  on  his  death- 
bed, laid  his  hands  on  his  head,  saying.  "  God  bless  you, 
my  son.  and   guide   and  keep  you  in  the  path  of  duty."' 

From  the  outset  he  joined  temperance  and  moral  re- 
forms with  his  preaching  and  wherever  he  has  been 
his  sympathy  has  been  with  the  erring,  the  wronged 
and  the  suffering  ;  and  tongue,  pen  and  hands  have 
been  ready  to  help  relieve.  In  all  things  he  has  been 
open,  bold  and  generous,  but  never  willing  to  act 
from  policv  at  the  dictate  of  another.  While  settled 
in  Providence,  he  was  among  the  first  and  most 
active  to  secure  a  "Republican  F"orm  of  Government" 
for  that  State,  which  it  did  not  enjoy  living  under  the 
Royal  Charter  of  Charles  II.  He  was  settled  in  New  York 
before  party  power  crushed  the  rights  of  the  people.  He 
has  always  been  successful  as  a  preacher,  and  highly 
esteemed  as  a  man  wherever  he  has  lived.  Twice  he  has 
sought  the  retirement  of  rural  life,  but  nowhere  has  he 
been  allowed  to  remain  inactive,  and  at  the  age  of  72  he 
is  working  as  hard  and  successful  as  ever.  Twice  his 
frieniis  have  sought  to  honor  him  with  two  useless  letters, 
D.  D..  but  in  both  cases  he  has  refused  to  accept  them  as 
not  in  accord  with  the  humble  spirit  of  the  Master. 
While  residing  in  Ludlow  he  was  elected  to  represent 
that  town  in  the  Legislature,  but  without  his  knowledge 
or  desire.  In  his  second  election  he  felt  some  interest, 
but  said  not  a  word  to  secure  it.  He  was  once  offered, 
with  every  assurance  of  an  overwhelming  majority,  the 
candidacy  for  Congress  in  one  of  the  strongest  Republi- 
can districts  in  Illinois.  He  refused  all  entreaties;  say- 
ing he  was  not  ordained  to  such   a  service,  and,  being

thoroughly  independent  of  party,  he  did  not  see  how  he 
could  be  of  service  in  such  a  iwsition.  An  obscure  Demo- 
.  crat  was  elected  by  near  2,000,  and  all  Deiuocrals  were 
ready  to  vole  for  him. 

The  labors  of  Mr.  Balch  have  not  been  conhned  to  his 
parishes.  He  has  traveled  and  preached  and  lectured 
extensively  ill  the  Eastern,  Middle  and  Western  Stales. 
and  has  been  several  limes  into  the  Southern  to  preach 
and  attend  funerals,  going  one  time  1,700  miles,  and 
many  times  over  1,000.  He  has  twice  visited  and  traveled 
extensively  in  Europe  ;  Ihe  last  time  extending  his  jour- 
ney through  Greece.  Turkey,  Syria,  Palestine  and  Egjpl, 
as  far  as  Nubia,  not  curiously,  but  visiting  most  of  the 
important  places  known  to  history.  The  early  years  of 
his  ministry  were  darkened  by  ill-health,  induced  by 
over-study  and  ignorance  of  the  laws  of  health,  but  for 
thirty  years  he  has  been  vigorous,  and  capable  of  endur- 
ance as  in  his  youth,  and  in  nothing  neglectful  of  his 
duties  as  a  man  and  a  minister. 

Mr.  Balch  accepted  a  call  to  the  pastorate  of  the  I'ni- 
vcrsalist  Church  at  Dubuque,  Iowa,  in  the  spring  of  1S77, 
and  at  the  end  of  the  year  desired  to  retire  from  active 
labor,  but  at  the  urgent  request  of  the  church  and  society 
continued  as  their  pastor. 

Mr.  Halch  died  at  Elgin,  111.,  during  the  last  days  of 
December,  1S87,  or  the  first  days  of  January,  1S88.

When  about  five  years  of  age  his  father  moved  to 
Lockport,  N.  Y.,  where  young  Ballou  received  a  connnon 
school  education  and  served  a  ti\e  years'  apprenticeship 
in  a  printing  oflice ;  he  then  attended  three  terms  at

He  was  at  one  time  President  of  the  Wisconsin  Editor-

Dear  Sir  :~l  am  not  a  Vermonter  by  birth.  My  native 
place  is  Jefferson  county,  New  \ork,  near  the  city  of 
Watertowu.  I  was  born  on  the  1st  day  of  December,  iSoS. 
My  father,  Chester  Ballou,  was  a  native  of  Massachu- 
setts, descended  from  Maturin  Ballou,  of  Providence,  the 
progenitor  of  all  the  Ballous  in  this  country.  He  was  one 
of  the  persecuted  Baptists  who  composed  the  Roger  Wil- 
liams colony,  a  Huguenot  from  l-rance.  My  motli<r, 
Rachel  Ha>  worth,  was  one  of  the  Pennsylvania  Friends 
or  Quakers.  In  my  childhood  I  enjoyed  advantages  for  a 
common  school  education.  When  about  twenty  years  of 
age  I  attended  nearly  two  years  the  St.  Lawrence  Acad- 
emy in  Potsdam,  N.V.,  of  which  that  celebrated  teacher, 
Rev.  Asa  Brainerd,  was  then  the  Principal.  I  taught  two 
terms  of  winter  school  in  West  Potsdam,  and  one  in  the 
town  of  Bangor,  l-'rankliu  county.  N.  \'.  As  we  hail  no 
Theological  schools  then,  I  studied  for  the  ministry  with 
Rev.  Jonathan  Wallace, of  Potsdam,  and  entered  the  Uni- 
versalist ministry  in  1832,  and  was  ordained  at  the  St. 
Lawrence  Association  of  i'niversalists  at  its  session  in 
June,  1S32.  Immediately  after  that  I  preache<l  in  Masse- 
na,  Malone,  Chateaugay,  N.  V.,  and  the  village  of  liunt- 
ington,  in  tlie  Pro\ince  of  Lower  (..'aiiada. 

In  January,  1S33,  1  moved  with  my  wife  to  Swanton 
Falls,  Vt.,  where  I  preached  three  years,  half  the  time, 
and  the  other  half  in  St.  Albans.  Fairfax  and  Berkshire. 
I  also  did  some  missionary  work  in  Bakersfield,  Knos- 
burgh,  Highgate,  Sheldon  and  .Mburgh;  also  in  Canada, 
in  the  townships  ot  Brome,  St.  Arniand,  Bedford,  Stan- 
bridge,  the  Sixth  Concession,  and  other  places.  Wliile 
in  Swanton  I  taught  the  village  school  three  terms,  fifteen 
weeks  each.

BIBLIOORAPBT  OF  VERMONT. 


In  1836,  I  became  the  pastor  of  the  societies  n  Stowe 
and  Morrisville,  where  I  remained  four  years. 

In  December,  1S39,  because  of  a  bronchial  difticuUy  1 
was  obliged  to  suspend  speaking  in  pubbc,  and  in  order 
to  have  some  business  that  I  could  attend  to  and  gain  a 
Hviiig  for  myself  and  family.  I  purchased  the  'Universal- 
ist  Watchman  and  Christian  Repository."  From  Stowe 
I  moved  to  Montpelier  early  in  1S40,  and  continued  to  be 
the  principal  owner  and  editor  of  that  paper  for  thirty 
years. 

During  my  residence  in  Montpelier,  I  preached  half 
the  Sundays  in  East  Montpelier  for  fourteen  years ; 
about  two  years  in  Barre;  four  or  five  years  in  Northfield 
and  Marshfield;  some  in  Calais,  Duxbury,  Wiliiston, Rich- 
mond, East  Randolph,  Brookfield.  Roxbury,  and  other 
places.  I  also  attended  a  large  number  of  funerals  and 
weddings. 

In  November,  1839,  in  connection  with  Rev.  H.  Samp- 
son and  Rev.  Jerome  Harris,  I  engaged  in  an  oral  discus- 
sion of  four  days  with  Rev.  Messrs.  Grant  and  Marsh  in 
the  town  of  Danville,  on  the  doctrines  of  endless  punish- 
ment, and  the  final  universal  salvation.  A  few  days  after 
this  I  held  an  oral  debate  of  four  days,  in  St.  Johnsbury, 
Vt.,  with  a  Methodist  preacher  by  the  name  of  Loveland. 
He  affirmed  that  'Modern  Uiii  versalism  is  a  system  of 
Infidelity,"  and  I  endeavored  to  defend  our  theological 
belief  against  this  foul  aspersion.  Hon.  Thomas  Baftlett 
of  Lyndon,  presided  as  chairman. 

I  also  engaged  in  an  oral  discussion  with  Rev.  Miles 
Grant,  the  Adventisl  editor  of  "The  World's  Crisis,"  in 
Boston.  This  debate  was  held  in  Walerbury,  and  con- 
tinued threedays.  I  affirmed  that  the  "Coming  of  Christ 
in  his  Kingdom"  began  during  the  generation  living  on 
the  earth,  when  Jesus  dwelt  in  the  ffesh,  and  Mr.  Grant 
affirmed  the  end  of  the  material  world  to  be  near  at  hanci, 
and  also  the  annihilation  of  all  who  die  unconverted. 
These  debates  were  ne\er  printed,  excepting  some  ac- 
counts of  them  in  the  "  Repository." 

In  1857,  I  published  a  pamphlet  of  S4  pages,  entitled 
"A  Discussion  on  the  Doctrine  of  Endless  Punishment  ; 
Question,  "Do  the  Scriptures  teach  that  any  part  or  por- 
tion of  mankind  will  be  endlessly  punishetl  for  sins  com- 
mitted in  this  life?"  Affirmative,  Key.  Luther  Lee;  Neg- 
ative, Rev.  Eli  Ballon.  Ballon  &  Loveland,  1857.  Mont-

In  1S58.  I  preached  the  "Occasional  Sermon"  before  the 
"Genera!  Convention,"  held  in  Boston,  and  also  presided 
at  two  sessions  of  that  Convention,  one  in  Boston  in  1S60, 
and.the  other  in  the  city  of  New  York  in  the  fall  of  1861. 

October  14.  1862,  1  gave  a  Biographical  Sketch  of  the 
life  and  character  of  Rev.  Hosea  Ballou,  2d,  D.  D.,  before 
the  \'ermont  Historical  Society,  at  its  annual  session, 
delivered  in  the  Repreientatives'  Hall  in  the  Capitol,  at 
Montpelier.  A  copy  of  it  was  requested  to  be  deposited 
in  the  archives  of  the  Society;  but  I  believe  it  has  never 
been  done. 

In  1871  1  made  a  visit  to  the  State  of  Kansas,  and  acted 
as  a  missionary  during  three  months.  On  my  return  I 
stopped  at  Maquoketa,  Jackson  county,  Iowa,  and 
preached  all  the  time  for  a  year  to  the  society  in  that 
city.  In  the  autumn  of  1872  I  returned  to  Vermont,  an<l 
since  then  I  have  been  pastor  nearly  seven  years  at  South 
Woodstock. 

I  am  now  preaching  every  Sunday  at  Barnard  Center 
in  the  forenoon,  and  at  Bethel  in  the  afternoon.  I  still 
regard  Montpelier  as  my  home,  and  live  in  the  expecta- 
tion that  in  a  few  years  at  most,  when  age  closes  my 
labors  in  the  ministry,  I  shall  return  to  the  Capital  to 
close  my  earthly  life  there,  as  1  desire  to  have  my  mortal 
remains  deposited  in  "Green  Mountain  Cemetery,"  by 
the  side  of  those  of  my  dear  children. 

I  have  thus  given  you  a  very  succinct  history  of  some 
of  the  events  of  my  life.  My  health  is  still  good,  and  I 
feel  that,  if  nothing  out  of  the  ordinary  course  happens 
to  me,  I  am  still  good  for  five  years  of  active  service,  in 
the  gospel  field. 

Fraternally  yours, 

ELI  BALLOU.

Rev.  Mr.  Ballou  was  born  in  Richmond,  N.  H.,  April  30, 
1771 ;  and  died  in  Boston,  June  7,  1852.  He  began  to 
preach  at  the  age  of  about  21  \ears,  and  labored  in  var- 
ious parts  of  New  England.  He  was  settled  at  Dana, 
Mass.,  in  1794,  where  he  remained  until  1800,  when  he 
accepted  the  invitation  of  the  towns  of  Woodstock, 
Hartland,  Bethel  and  Barnard,  Vt.,  to  preach  for  them, 
making  the  latter  place  his  home;  here  he  remained  six 
years,  not  only  doing  his  parish  work,  but  in  addition 
performing  vast  missionary  labor  in  various  parts  of  Ver-

BENNINGTON.  At  a  Meeting  of  those  of  the 
Church  and  Congiegation  of  Bennington,  who 
adhere  to  the  Rev.  Mr.  Avery's  Ministry  The 
Honorable  Jonas  Fay  and  Moses  Robinson, 
Esquires,  were  appointed  a  Committee,  to  ac- 
quaint Mr.  Avery,  that  this  meeting  do  ap- 
prove of  the  Stating  of  the  Facts,  mentioned 
in  his  Narrative  of  the  rise  and  progress  of  the 
Difficulties  which  have  issued  in  a  separation 
between  him  and  his  People,  read  to  them  this 
Day,  and  to  request  a  Copy  for  the  Press.

Russell.    8vopp.  .55. 

The  Church  difficulty  in  this  case  arose  from  the  fact 
that  the  Rev.  Mr.  Avery,  who  had  been  a  Chaplain  in  the 
army  upon  accepting  a  call  to  this  Church,  brought  with 
his  family  a  female  slave,  and  insisted  upon  his  right  to 
retain  her  in  that  relation;  hence  the  trouble.

Mrs.  Anne  Charlotte  (Lynch)  Botta.  was  born  in  Ben- 
nington, \t.  Her  father,  a  native  of  Ireland,  at  the  age 
of  sixteen,  joined  the  lliiited  Irishmen  of  his  native 
country,  and  for  participating  in  the  troubles  of  179S,  was 
imprisoned  four  years  and  then  banished  ;  he  was  ottered 
a  pardon  and  a  commission  in  the  British  Army  if  he 
would  swear  allegiance  to  the  Government,  but  he  ac- 
cepted imprisonment  and  banishment  instead.  He  came 
to  America,  and  married  a  daughter  of  an  officer  of  our 
Revolutionary  Army,  and  died  soon  after  the  birth  of  the 
subject  of  this  sketch.  Miss  Lynch  was  educated  at  Al- 
bany, and  then  resided  in  Providence,  R.  I.,  a  short  time, 
where  she  published  in  1S41,  the  "Rhode    Island  Book,"

Boyce.  Mrs.  Laura  Brigham. 

Mrs.  Boyce,  the  eldest  daughter  of  lilisha  Brigham, 
and  sister  of  Dr.  G.  X.  Brigham.  formerly  of  Montpclier, 
Vt.,  was  born  in  Fayston,  February  27,  1840.  Books  and 
newspa|>ers  were  the  delight  of  her  childhood,  and  her 
longing  for  knowledge  was  intense.  At  the  age  of  ten 
she  began  to  compose  short  poems,  the  first  that  her 
friends  ever  saw  being  a  tribute  presented  to  her  teacher 
at  the  closing  of  school.  Her  first  poem  that  was  ollered 
for  publication  was  written  at  the  age  of  12  years,  and 
appeared  in  the  "  Green  Mountain  Freeman,"  U.  1'. 
Thompson  being  at  that  time  the  editor.  He  gave  her 
much  encouragement  that  she  remembers  grate- 
fully. She  contributed  to  that  paper  many  poems  from 
time  to  time,  and  in  later  years  articles  in  prose.  Her 
early  writings  appeared  under  the  pseudonym  of  "Minnie 
Moore,"  but  after  her  marriage  she  usually  appended  her 
real  signature.  In  the  last  ten  years  Mrs.  Boyce  has 
written  many  tales,  essays,  historical  sketches,  etc.,  etc., 
for  dilVerent  periodicals.  Among  the  papers  to  which 
she  has  contribnted  are  "The  Vermont  Watchman  and 
Journal,"  "Argus  and  Patriot,"  "  Green  Mountain  Free- 
man," "  Vermont  Farmer,"  published  at  St.  Johnsbury, 
"  The  St.  Albans  Messenger,"  "  The  Vermont  Record  ami 

Farmer, l"he  American  Cultivator."  "  Zion's  Herald," 

"  VVaverly  Magazine."  the  three  last  Boston,  Mass. 
papers,  'The  Saturday  Kvening  Post,"  I'hilapelphia! 
t'a.,  and  some  others.  She  also  wrote  the  history  of 
Fayston  for  Miss  Hemenway's  Gazetteer.  All  her  liter- 
ary work  has  been  done  at  a  disadvantage,  from  a  pure 
love  of  writing,  in  the  rare  leisure  moments  of  a  busy  life, 
full  of  many  cares.  Mrs.  Boyce  continues  (1880)  to  reside 
in  Fayston.

Mr.  Brown  was  the  first  staled  Minister  settled  in 
Montpelier;  he  was  hired  in  1S05,  in  accordance  with  a 
vote  of  tile  town,  to  preach  one  year,  at  five  dollars  per 
Sunday,  in  addition  to  what  he  could  pick  up  in  perqui- 
sites from  marriages  and  extra  sermons.  But  he  only 
remained  about  six  months  in  consequence  of  difter- 
ences  of  opinion  amonfi  the  people  on  theological  ques- 
tions and  in  relation  to  Mr.  Brown's  real  piety.  The  peo- 
ple appear  tohave become  ncKliKent  in  attending  church, 
and  Mr.  Brown  preached  a  jiointed  sermon  in  reference 
to  it,  which  so  offended  them  that  they  paid  him  for  a 
full  year's  preaching  and  <lisniissed  hitn. 

Mr.  Brown  was  a  Unitarian,  and  the  settlers  of  Mont- 
pelier having  been  in  tlie  hahit  of  passing  Sunday  in 
horse  racing  and  kindred  sports,  he  probably  felt  that 
they  ought  to  ha\e  a  little  brimstone  in  theirs. 

Mr.  Brown  remained  in  Montpelier,  and  about  the  mid- 
dle of  November,  1S06,  started  a  weekly  newspaper,  the 
first  published  in  town,  called  the  Vermont  Precursor, 
which  he  continued  a  few  months,  when  he  sold  it  to 
Samuel Goss,  whoa  few  months  later  re-christened  it  the 
Vermont  Watchman,  which  is  still  continued.  Mr. 
Brown  afterwards  went  West,  and  died  there.  Mrs. 
Brown,  after  the  death  of  her  husband,  pushed  on  further 
West,  until  she  reached  Oregon,  where  she  established  a 
school,  out  of  which  grew  the  Pacific  University,  of 
which  Sidney  H.  Marsii  was  President,  and  his  younger 
brother  Joseph  is  Professor,  both  being  natives  of  Bur- 
lington, Vt.,  sons  of  the  late  President  James  Marsh,  of 
the  University  of  V'ermonl;  on  the  maternal  side  they 
are  descended  from  Kcv.  Dr.  Eleazar  Wheelock,  founder 
of  Dartmouth  College.

Among  the  many  noted  persons  to  whom  \'erniont  has 
given  birth,  probably  Mr.  Brownson  should  occupy  a 
place  in  the  front  rank.  He  was  born  in  Stockbridge,  Vt., 
September  16,  1803;  in  1825  he  became  a  Universalist 
Minister,  preaching  in  Vermont  and  elsewhere,  writing 
for  and  editing  various  periodicals  of  that  denomination. 
In  18,^2  he  joined  the  Unitarians,  and  in  1836  organized  an 
Independent  Society  in  Boston,  to  which  he  preached 
until  about  1843,  when  he  became  a  Roman  Catholic,  enter- 
ing that  connnunion  in  1844,  where  he  ever  after  continued. 

Mr.  Brownson  has  been  a  voluminous  writer,  and  his 
works  have  attracted  much  attention,  not  only  in  this 
country,  but  in  Europe.  His  first  theological  work  was 
published  in  1S36,  entitled  "  New  Views  of  Christianity, 
Society,  and  the  Church  ;"  in  1840,  he  published  "Charles 
Elwood,  or  the  Infidel  Converted,"  which  is  an  auto- 
biographic Sketch, and  has  passed  through  several  editions 
in  this  country  and  England.  "  An  Oration  on  the 
Scholar's  Mission,"  liurUngton,  I't.,  l'.  Harrington. 
1843.  8vo,  pp.  40.  "  The  Spirit  Rapper,"  in  1854^  and 
"The  Convert,  or  Leaves  i^rom  My  Experience,"  1857; 
"  The  American  Republic,  its  Constitution,  Tendencies, 
and  Destiny,"  A'«('  York.  1862,  Svo.  The  great  labor  of 
Mr.  Brownson's  life  has  been  in  connection  with  periodi- 
cal literature ;  in  183S  he  established  the  Boston  (juarttr- 
Iv  Rei'iew,  of  which  five  annual  volumes  were  published, 
when  in  1842  it  was  merged  inthe  United  States  Magazine 
and  Democratic  Review  of  New  York,  to  which  Mr. 
Brownson  became  a  stated  contributor,  and  during  the 
year  and  a  half  that  he  occupied  this  position  he  fur- 
nished many  powerful  articles,  but  some  of  his  ideas  not 
being  in  harmony  with  the  time-honored  principles  of 
the  Democratic  party,  with  mutual  respect  and  good 
feeling,  he  withdrew  his  connection  from  the  Democratic 
Revic7v  about  January  1,  1843.  The  vtrticles  by  Mr.  Brown- 
son in  the  Democratic  Review  are  a  Review  of  Schniucker's 
Psychology  ;"  "  Brook  Farm,"  a  Socialist  Association  then 
at  West  Roxbury,  Mass.:  "Synthetic  Philosophy;"  "The 
Community  .System;"  "Democracy  and  Liberty:"  "Re- 
marks on  Universal  History;"  "The  Present  State  of 
Society,"  being  a  reviewof  Carlyle's  "Past  and  Present;" 
"Origiii  and  tlrouiid  of  Government,"  in  which  advanced 
views  of  social  and  political  equality  are  advocated  ;  and 
at  the  close  of  the  series,  Mr.  Brownson's  connection  with 
the  Democratic  Review  ceased  ;  his  articles  occupy  about 
250  pages.  In  1S44  he  established  in  Boston  ^'Broicnson's 
Quarterly  Review,^'  which  he  conducted  almost  single- 
handed,  largely  devoted  to  the  interests  of  the  Roman 
Catholic  church,  but  also  discussed  questions  of  politics 
and  literature.  That  this  work  is  highly  esteemed  is 
evitlenced  by  the  fact  that  complete  sets  are  valued  at 
$200  each. 

We  give  the  following  extract  from  a  letter  of  a  gentle- 
man in  Boston,  under  date  of  [December  iS,  1877,  to  whom 
we  applied  for  information  :  "  Mr.  Brownson  died  about 
a  year  ago.  I  knew  him  well.  He  was  a  very  able  man, 
but  the  most  obstinate  one  I  ever  knew;  he  went  all 
through  the  changes  in  theology,  and  at  last  found  rest 
in  Mother    Church.      Through    the   efforts     of    Father 


Hecker,  of  New  York,  he  was  given  an  annuity  of  $1,200  a 
year,  which  made  him  comfortable  the  latter  years  of  his 
life.  His  A'fz'/t"7(' was,  I  think,  merged  into  some  other 
Catholic  publication." 

Mr.  Brownson  died  in  Detroit,  Mich.,  April  17,  1S76.

Mr.  Burke  was  born  in  Westminster,  Vt.  .January  23,1809. 
He  died  at  Newport,  N..  H., January  25,  1SS2,  aged  73.  His 
father  was  a  farmer  in  moderate  circumstances,  wlio 
greatly  desired  that  Edmund  should  ha\e  a  collegiate 
training,  but  was  not  in  a  condition  to  meet  the  necessary 
expenses.  It  was,  however,  decide*.!  that  the  son  should 
become  a  member  of  one  of  the  learned  professions, 
and  he  began  the  study  of  Latin,  with  the  purpose  in 
view  of  reading  law.  Later  he  entered  the  olhce  of  Hon. 
William  C.  Bradley  of  Westminster.  Voung  Burke  pur- 
sued his  studies  for  nearly  five  years  and  was  then  ad- 
mitted to  the  Windham  (V't. )  Bar.  Soon  afterward  he 
became  a  member  of  the  Cheshire  (N.  H.)  Bar,  and  in 
April,  1S30,  he  emigrated  to  Coos  County.  Mis  first  loca- 
tion in  that  section  was  at  Colebrook,  from  which  place 
he  removed  to  Whitefield,  where  he  remained  in  the 
practice  of  his   profession  until   1833,  when  he  went  to 


Claremont,  N.  H.,  to  take  charge  of  the  Are:us  news- 
paper in  that  town.  In  1S34  Mr.  Burke  removea  with  his 
paper  to  Newport,  which  place  was,  with  the  exception 
of  a  five  years'  residence  at  Washington,  D.  C,  afterward 
his  home.  A  little  later  the  .-l»-,g-/(j  was  united  with  the 
AVzc  Hampshire  Spectator,  then  owned  by  Hon.  Simon 
Brown,  the  new  paper  having  the  title  of  .^rgus 
and  Spectator  and  being  under  the  editorial  control 
of  Mr.  Burke.  So  ably  and  successfully  was  the 
paper  conducted  that  its  manager  acquired  a  national 
reputation  and  the  result  was  that  ex-President  Polk  and 
P'elix  M-  Grundy,  U.  S.  Senator  from  Tennessee,  offered 
Mr.  Burke  the  editorship  of  the  Union  of  Nashville,  the 
leading  Democratic  organ  of  that  State.  The  position 
was  accepted  and  a  valedictory  published  in  the  Argus 
and  Spectator.  The  many  political  friends  of  this  young 
editor  were  so  anxious  for  him  to  remain  in  New  Hamp- 
shire that  they  pledged  him  a  Democratic  nomination  for 
Congress.  The  unexpected  compliment  could  hardly  be 
declined,  and  permitting  his  name  to  be  used,  Mr.  Burke 
received  the  nomination  in  183S,  and  in  March  following 
was  elected  a  Representative  to  the  Twtjnty-si.xth  Con- 
gress of  the  United  States,  being  then  but  thirty  years  of 
age.  He  was  subsequently  twice  re-elected.  Kegarding 
his  Congressional  career,  it  is  only  justice  to  say  that  it 
was  creditable  to  himself  and  honorable  to  his  State. 
His  speeches  gained  tor  him  greatpopularity  in  his  party. 
His  addresses  upon  the  indcpcmlent  treasury  and  upon 
the  tarilTshowed  great  intellectual  labor,  and  bore  evi- 
dence of  deep  and  critical  research. 

At  the  termination  of  his  Congressional  life,  he  was 
tendered  by  President  Polk  the  office  of  Commissioner  of 
Patents,  which  he  accepted  May  5,  1S45.  He  performed 
the  duties  of  that  posiiion  until  the  accession  of  General 
Taylor  to  the  Presidency.  While  in  that  office  Mr.  Burke 
wrote  those  famous  papers  on  the  tariff",  originally  pub- 
lished in  the  Washington  t'nion,  which  were  subse- 
quently circulated  in  pamphlet  lorin  in  eNeiy  town  in  the 
kepubiic.  After  leaving  the  Patent  Ullice  Mr.  Burke 
formed  a  connection  with  Thomas  Ritchie,  by  which  he 
became  a  joint  editor  orthe  Washingion  Union.  In  1850, 
his  connection  with  that  paper  having  expired,  he  re- 
turned to  Newport  with  his  family,  resuming  the  practice 
of  his  profession  and  engaging  to  a  considerable  extent 
in  literary  pursuits.  He  collected  a  miscellaneous 
library  which  was  reported  to  be  worth  520,000,  while  his 
collection  of  law  books  was  estimated  tobeat  least  half 
as  much  more.  Injliis  latest  years  his  greatest  happiness 
was  in  the  reading  of  literary  works  and  in  collecting 
rare  volumes  for  his  library.  He  was  prominently  con- 
nected with  the  Unitarian  denomination.  Mr.  Burke 
married  first  .-\mi  Watson,  and  second  Mary  Elizabeth 
Whitney,  the  latter  and  a  daughter,  Mrs.  Col.  George  H. 
Dana,  sur\iving.  (1882.)  The  deceased  left  a  property 
supposed  to  aggregate  nearly  if  not  quite  $200,000.

Arthur  Shirley.     1824.     8vo,  pp.  414. 

Dr.  Burton  was  born  in  Stonington,  Conn.,  August  25, 
1752;  and  died  in  Thetford,  Vt,  May  I,  1836.  He  was 
graduated  at  Dartmouth  College  in  1777;  after  which  he 
and  his  classmate,  Daniel  Foster,  continued  at  the  Col- 
lege for  the  study  of  Divinity ;  in  the  fall  of  1777  the 
Grafton  Presbytery  met  at  the  house  of  President 
Wheelock,  when  the  two  young  men  were  sent  for,  and 
after  a  brief  examination,  were  licensed  to  preach. 

His  father  and  family  removed  to  Norwich,  Vt.,  in 
1766,  and  young  Burton  was  of  those  who  "struck  the 
first  blows"  where  the  College  now  stands;  and  as  there 
were  no  suitable  accommodations  at  Hanover,  the  Trus- 
tees met  at  his  father's  house  in  Norwich  for  two  or 
three  vears. 

Mr.  Burton  preached  his  first  sermon  at  Norwich,  soon 
after  he  was  licensed ;  and  then  passed  about  one  year 
with  Rev.  Dr.  Hart,  in  his  native  town,  in  theological 
studies.  In  177S  he  preached  about  five  months  in  Tops- 
field,  Mass.,  but  declined  to  settle  there.  He  then 
preached  se\eral  Sundays  in  Windsor,  Vt.,  and  next 
preached  at  Royalton,  Vt.,  and  also  declined  a  settle- 
ment. He  then  preached  a  Sunday  or  two  at  Thetford, 
and  finally  accepted  the  unanimous  call  of  the  church  and 
society  to  become  their  pastor,  where  he  continued 
through  life. 

His  first  impressions  of  the  people  there  were  not  fav- 
orable. He  wrote :  "They  appeared  to  me  to  be  very 
litigious,  quarrelsome,  intemperate,  immoral,  clownish 
and  vulgar;  and  in  view  of  towns  around  they  stood 
lowest  in  public  estimation,  I  felt  as  though  I  could  not 
live  among  a  people  so  degraded.  But  1  was  told  the 
more  degraded  ai:d  immoral  they  were,  the  more  room 
there  was  to  do  good ;  and  if  I  pitched  where  Satan's 
camp  was,  there  would  be  an  opportunity  for  the  display 
of  courage,  and  to  raise  a  degraded  people  to  respecta- 
bility." He  was  ordained  at  Thetford.  January  19,  1779. 
His  labors  were  arduous  and  remuneration  small;  there 
being  no  meeting-house,  services  were  held  in  private 
houses  in  winter,  and  in  barns  in  summer.  His  salary 
was  never  raised  above  ?283.,-i3.  The  town  agreed  to 
furnish  him,  in  addition,  25  cords  of  wood  annually;  but 
the  agreement  was  soon  forgotten,  or  at  least  unper- 
formed. Of  course  he  and  his  w  ife  were  soon  taught  the 
most  rigid  economy,  and  when  he  became  infirm  with 
age,  and  a  colleague  was  settled,  he  relinquished  $133  of 
the  pittance  of  a  salary  that  he  was  receiving;  which 
was,  however,  paid  irregularly,  and  at  the  convenience 
of  his  people;  yet  his  frugality  and  that  of  his  wife  was 
such  that  he  accumulated  about  $1,000  during  a  ministry 
of  more  than  fifty  years,  in  addition  to  his  real  estate, 
which  consisted  of  a  wild  lot  assigned  to  him  by  the 
town  at  the  time  of  his  settlement.  Here  is  a  fine  exmmple 
for  people  who  are  constantly  complaining  of  "hard  times."

Checkley,  John.  A  Short  and  easy  Method 
with  the  Deists  :  Wherein  the  certainty  of  the

ble Proof  from  four  rules,  which  are  Incom- 
jjatible  to  any  Imposture  that  ever  yet  has  been, 
or  that  can  possibly  be.  In  a  letter  to  a  Friend. 
First  American,  from  the  Eighth  London  Edi- 
tion. Windsor,  Vt. :  Printed  by  T.  M.  Pom- 
roy.    1812.     16mo,  pp.  168. 

Beside  the  "Short  and  Easy  Method,"  by  Leslie,  first 
printed  in  London,  1694,  this  volume  contains  :  By  J. 
Checkley,  "A  Discourse  concerning  Episcopacy."  pp. 
43-134:  "The  Epistle  of  St.  Ignatius  to  the  Trallians," 
PP  135-^39:  The  Speech  of  Mr.  John  Checkley  upon  his 
Trial  at  iJoston  in  New  England,  for  publishing  "The 
Short  and  easy  method  with  the  Deists;"  "A  Discourse 
concerning  Episcopacy;"  in  defence  of  Christianity  and 
the  Church  of  England,  against  the  Deists  and  Dissen- 
ters.— To  which  is  added,  the  Jury's  Verdict ;  his  Plea  in 
arrest  of  Judgment;  and  the  Sentence  of  Court.  Also 
by  Checkley,  "A  specimen  of  a  true  dissenting  Cate- 
chism, upon  the  right  true-blue  principles,  with  learned 
notes  by  way  of  explication."    pp.  140-168. 

The  "Short  and  easy  Method,"  to  which  was  appended 
the  "Discourse  on  Episcopacy,"  was  first  printecl,  Lon- 
don, by  J.  Applebee,  and  sold  by  John  Checkley,  at  the 
Sign  of  the  Crown  and  Blue  Gate,  over  against  tlie  West 
End  of  the  Town  House  in  Boston,  1723.  Mr.  Checkley 
doubtless  could  not  get  it  printed  in  Boston,  on  account 
of  Puritan  opposition.  He  was  sentenced  by  the  Court 
to  pay  .^50  to  the  King,  and  give  bonds  for  his  good  be- 
havior ;  and  the  ne-xt  day  he  paid  the  money,  including 
costs,  into  Court.  The  speech,  trial,  verdict,  etc.,  was 
printed  in  London  by  Applebee,  in  172S,  a  second  edition 
in  1738;  and  this  little  volume,  printed  at  Windsor,  is 
the  first  American  edition  of  the  whole  case.  Nothing 
was  e\er  published  in  New  England,  probably,  on  the 
Episcopal  side  of  the  question,  so  exasperating  to  the 
Calvinists  or  as  they  were  sometimes  called,  Non-Con- 
formists, and  Dissenters,  as  this  little  work.  The  contest 
which  followed  the  trial  of  Checkley  was  continued  long 
after  his  decease,  and  did  not  finally  subside  until  about 
1770. 

Mr.  Checkley  was  born  in  Boston,  of  English  parents, 
in  ibSo,  and  throughout  his  life  was  untiringly  devoted  to 
the  interests  of  the  English  Church.  He  was  well  educa- 
ted, linishing  his  studies  at  the  University  of  Oxford;  soon 
after  his  trial  he  went  to  England,  and  upon  receiving 
Episcopal  ordination  returned,  and  was  for  many  years 
rector  of  St.  John's  Church  in  Providence,  Rhode  Island 
being  an  asylum  for  those  persecuted  by  the  Puritans  of 
the  Massachusetts  Bay.     Mr.  Checkley  died  February  15, 

1753-

Mr.  Curtis  was  born  at  Lebanon,  Conn..  June  13,  1755, 
and  died  at  Norwich,  Vt.,  October  1,  1783.  His  father, 
Simeon,  married  Sarah  Hutchinson,  and  the  family  was 
among  the  early  settlers  of  Norwich,  \'t.  Abel  was 
graduated  at  Dartmouth  College  in  1776:  he  married  Miss 
Keziah  Brown,  of  Norwich,  May  12,  1779:  she  was  born 
in  Preston,  Conn.,  April  4,  1764,  and  was  therefore  a  little 
over  fifteen  at  her  marriage.  They  settled  upon  a  farm 
at  Norwich,  and  commenced  housekeeping,  as  he  says  in 
his  journal,  November  22,  1779,  and  had  two  daughters, 
"Lucy,  born  February,  17th  day  of  the  moon,  1780; 
Salley,  born  December  6,  1782,  about  6  o'clock  p.  m.,  and 
second  day  of  the  moon."  The  former  married  Thomas 
Emerson,  (post),  of  Windsor,  a  merchant  and  banker 
widely  known  in  his  day.  Mr.  Curtis  was  a  young  man 
of  brilliant  promise,  and  although  cut  off  at  the  early  age 
of  28,  he  held  many  positions  of  trust  and  honor  in  the 
State.  He  was  a  member  of  the  General  Assembly,  1778, 
'8iand'S2;  with  Elisha  Payne,  of  Lebanon,  N.  II.,  (then 
considered  a  part  of  Vermont),  Jonas  Fay  and  Ira  Allen, 
he  was  appointed  January  10,  17S2,  an  agent  and  delegate 
to  Congress,  it  then  being  the  expectation  that  Vermont 
would  be  immediately  admitted  into  the  Union:  in  March 
following  he  was  appointed  a  member  of  the  Board  of 
War,  and  was  also  appointed  by  several  towns  on  the 
Connecticut  River.  Connnissioner  to  the  Governor  of  New 
Hampshire,  in  relation  to  the  union  of  certain  New 
Hampshire  towns  with  \'erniont ;  in  addition  he  was 
Town  Clerk,  Justice  of  the  Peace  and  Judge  ofWindsor 
County  Court  at  the  time  of  his  death.  It  is  supposed 
that  he  wrote  the  first  purely  English  grammar  written 
and  published  in  America.  The  private  maimscript 
journal  of  Mr.  Curtis  has  recently  come  into  the  posses- 
sion of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society,  through  his 
grandson,  Curtis  Emerson,  Esq.,  only  surviving  member 
of  the  family  of  Thomas  Emerson.  We  are  indebted  to 
Rev.  H.  A.  Hazen.  of  Billerica.  Mass. .  for  the  title  of  Mr.

Mr.  Dean  was  born  in  Barnard,  \'t.,  January  16,  1803  ; 
whither  his  father,  Nathaniel  Dean,  had  removed  from 
Massachusetts,  in  early  life.  The  family  was  subject  to 
the  usual  hardships  and  deprivations  of  a  new  country, 
and  Amos,  manifesting  an  intense  thirst  for  knowledge, 
found  it  difficult  to  procure  books  for  its  gratification. 
He  continued  on  the  farm  until  early  manhood,  when 
ha\'ing  procured  a  little  money  by  leaching  a  district 
school,  he  entered  Randolph  Academy;  in  1S25  he  entered 
the  Senior  class  at  Union  College,  Schnectady,  graduat- 
ing in  1S26,  when  he  commenced  the  study  of  the  law  witli 
his  uncle,  Jabez  D.  Hammond,  at  .\lbany,  N.  V.  Mr. 
Dean  was  always  foremost  in  all  educational  work ;  he 
and  others,  in  1S33  organized  the  "  Young  Men's  Asso- 
ciation of  Albany,"  the  pioneer  of  those  institutions  for 
mental  improvement;  he  was  one  of  those  who  organized 
the  "Albany  Medical  College,"  also  the  "  Albany  Law 
School,"  in  the  former  of  whicii  he  accepted  the  chair  of 
Medical  Jurisprudence,  and  of  the  latter  he  accepted  the 
active  management.  In  1S55  he  was  elected  Chancellor 
and  Professor  of  History  in  the  Uni^'ersily  of  Iowa,  and 
after  passing  three  summers  there,  he  resigned  and  con- 
tinued as  the  acti\'e  manager  of  the  Law  School  until  his 
death.  The  works  of  Mr.  Dean  in  addition  to  those 
mentioned,  are  the  following  : 

"  Manual  of  Law,"  1S38.  "  Philosophy  of  Human  Life," 
8vo,  1839  and  numerous  law  treatises,  all  of  which  have 
been  regarded  as  standard  works. 

His  greatest  work,  "The  History  of  Civilization,"  was 
commenced  in  1833,  and  completed  in  1863,  thirty  years 
after  its  inception,  but  was  not  published  until  after  his 
decease,  which  occurred  January  26,  1868.  Mr.  Dean 
ranked  high  as  a  lawyer,  and  contiimed  in  active  practice 
until  1854,  when  he  gave  his  whole  time  to  the  Law  School 
and  other  duties.  He  was  a  lawyer,  an  educator,  a 
scholar,  and  an  autlior.  See  sketch  of  his  life,  prefi.xed

give  them  some  of  my  own  biography,  no  objections,  gen-

Leonard  Deming,  whig,  ruithout  the  aid  of  Treasury 
pap,  born  in  Canaan,  Conn.,  September  s,  17S7,  removed 
to  Middlebur>-  village  with  my  father  and  family,  March

May,  1819,  the  only  person  in  that  village  who  was  there 
at  the  time  my  father  moved  there.  In  April,  1794,  my 
father  John  Deming,  moved  to  Salisbury,  and  lived  there 
till  1807,  and  then  returned  to  Middlebury.  January  i, 
iSii.  I  was  married  to  Miss  Ruth  Case,  a  daughter  of 
Nathan  Case,  and  she  died  February  23,  1823,  leaving  four 
children,  two  are  living.  My  eldest  son,  Edmond  C, 
keeps  a  barber  shop  at  56  Brattle  street,  Boston,  where 
you  will  find  a  chip  of  the  old  block,  should  you  call  upon 
him.  December  13,  1827,  I  was  married  to  Miss  Jcrusha 
Benton,  of  Cornwall,  who  died  December  23,  1829,  leav- 
ing one  little  son  who  died  when  3  years  old.  May  19, 
I  S3 1,  married  Miss  Dorothy  Taylor,  of  Willi  ston,  who  died 
June  17,  1835,  leaving  one  son  who  is  now  a  Freshman  in 
Middlebury  College.  April  28,  1836,  married  Miss  Ann 
Byington,  of  Hinesburgh,  who  is  living,  but  in  feeble 
health,  hi  May,  1S36,  I  had  three  fathers,  four  mothers, 
and  one  grand-mother  living,  and  now  but  one  father 
aged  88,  and  one  mother  aged  85,  my  second  wife's 
parents.

Hosea  Doton  of  Woodstock  was  born  in  Pomfret,  \'t., 
November  29.  1809.  He  began  teaching  in  1828,  and  for 
nearly  40  years  w. -is  a  larjje  part  of  the  time  conducting 
schools  in  his  native  country.  In  1S45  Norwich  Univer- 
sity recognized  his  work  by  giving  him  the  honorary  de- 
gree of  Master  of  Arts.  Worthy  of  speci.il  mention  is  the 
private  school  conducted  by  him  in  Pomfret  from  1850  to 
1866.  This  gave  the  town  the  advantages  of  an  efficient 
academy,  and  was  speciallj-  successful  in  its  original 
purpose  of  preparing  young  people  for  school  work,  as 
something  over  150  of  the  pupils  became  practical  teach- 
ers, including  a  large  projiortion  who  were  more  than 
ordinarily  successful.  Mr.  Doton  qualified  himself  as  a 
civil  engineer,  was  employed  as  such  in  the  construction 
of  the  Northern  Railroad  of  New  Hampshire,  and  had 
charge  of  the  building  of  the  Woodstock  railroad.  His 
tirst  published  astronomical  work  was  this  Almanac, 
which  was  continued  with  the  same  publishers  in  similar 
form  until  1856.  His  calculations  for  1857  were  not  pub- 
lished, but  the  next  year  he  began  work  for  Walton's 
Vermont  Register,  and  continued  it  without  interruption 
for  many  \ears. 

Mr.  Doton  died  at  Woodstock,  Jan.  17,  1886.

Mr.  Douglas  was  born  at  Brandon,  V't.,  April  23,  1813; 
died  at  Chicago,  111.,  June3,  i860.  His  fatlier  having  died 
while  he  was  an  infant,  he  and  his  sister  were  taken  by 
their  mother  to  a  farm  occupied  by  her  brother,  where 
young  Douglas  remained  until  15  years  of  age,  working 
upon  the  farm  and  attending  the  district  school.  At  this 
period  he  apprenticed  himself  to  a  cabinet  maker  in 
Middlebury,  where  he  remained  two  years,  when  he 
entered  the  academy  at  Brandon,  and  remained  one  year. 
In  the  meantime  his  mother  and  sister  had  married  and 
settled  in  Canandaigua,  N.  Y.,  and  young  Douglas  was 
persuaded  to  follow  them  to  their  new  home,  where  he 
continued  his  studies  at  the  Academy  in  that  place  for 
three  years  during  a  portion  of  which  time  he  pursued  a 
course  of  law  studies.  In  1833,  when  not  quite  21  years  of 
age,  he  located  permanently  in  the  state  of  Illinois,  where 
he  at  once  entered  upon  his  great  career  as  law-yer, 
judge,  politician  and  statesman.  Before  leaving  \'ermont 
It  is  said  he  organized  a  band  of  "Jackson  Boys,"  who 
proclaimed  war  upon  the  "Coffin  hand-bills,"  they  being 
a  libel  on  Genera!  Jackson,  and  managed  to  destroy  them 
as  fast  as  the\  were  placarded  upon  the  \\'alls  and  fences 
of  the  town.  And  thus  he  contiimed  to  battle  against  the 
enemies  ol  the  Democratic  party  during  the  entire  period 
of  Ills  life.  The  above  is  a  partial  list  of  the  works  by 
and  relating  to  Douglas.

Mr.  Dunham  was  a  leading  Federalist  in  Vermont  dur- 
ing the  administrations  of  Jefferson  and  Madison.  He 
resided  at  Windsor,  and  there  published  the  Washiug- 
touian.  a  Federal  newspaper,  for  several  years  He  was 
born  at  Columbia,  Ct..  April  7, 1769,  and  died  at  Lexington, 
Ky..  May  10,  1844.  He  was  gradnaled  at  Dartmouth  Col- 
lege, 1789;  was  Secretary  of  State  f,r  Vermont.  1813-15. 
In  the  excited  contest  for  the  election  of  Governor  by  the 
General  Assembly  in  1813,  there  having  been  no  election 
by  the  people,  Mr.  Dunham  acted  as  Clerk,  and  the  duty 
of  counting  the  votes  consequently  devolved  upon  him. 
He  was  a  gentleman  of  the  old  style,  with  rufifed  sliirt- 
front  and  long,  full  ruffled  wristbands,  and  the  tradition 
is  that  in  counting  the  votes  his  mffled  wristbands  con- 
tinually worked  down  overhis  hands,  which  made  it  nec- 
essary for  him  as  continually  to  push  them  back,  with  his 
fingers,  and  in  so  doing  a  ballot  for{io\'.  Galnsha,  the  re- 
publican candidate,  is  supposed  somehow  to  have  got 
eutaiigled  in  the  ruffles,  thus  electing  the  Federal  candi- 
date, Martin  Chittenden,  by  one  majority,  he  receiving 
112  votes  and  tialnsha  111  ;  subse<inently  112  members 
made  affidavit  that  they  voted  for  Galusha,  but  it  was  of 
no  avail,  as  Chittenden  had  been  "counted  in."  For  a

Hon.  James  Elliot  was  born  at  Gloucester,  Mass.,  Au- 
gust 18.  1775.  His  fatBer  died  at  sea,  when  he  was  an  in- 
fant and  his  mother  subsequently  removed  to  New 
Salem,  Mass.,  among  her  relatives.  His  early  life  was 
one  of  privation  and  toil.  At  the  age  of  seven  he  went  to 
work  for  Capt.  Sanderson,  a  merchant  and  farmer  at 
Petersham.  Mass,  Here  he  remained  seven  years  and 
then  went  to  Guilford,  Vt..  where  he  became  clerk  in  a 
store.  His  spare  moments  were  devoted  to  reading  and 
study  and  he  early  developed  an  ardent  patriotism,  with 
strong  proclivities  for  political  discussion  and  writing. 
In  his  eighteenth  year,  he  went  to  Springfield,  Mass., 
and  enlisted  for  the  Indian  war,  July  12.  1793,  as  the  first 
non-commissioned  officer  of  a  new  company  in  the 
Second  United  States  Sub-Legion,  commanded 'by  Capt. 
Cornelius  Lyman.  He  served  with  honor  throughout 
the  war  and  returned  to  Guilford,  August  23.  1796.  Here 
he  kept  store  and  studied  law,  and  about  iSoo  began  to 
practice  at  the  bar.  occupying  an  office  with  his  brother 
Samuel,  in  Brattleboro,'  Vt.,  which  then  became  his 
home.  He  married  Lucy  Dow.  daughter  of  General  Dow. 
of  New  Hampshire,  by  whom  he  had  two  children, 
James  Madison  and  Man,'.  The  latter  only  survived 
him.  He  was  Clerk  of  the  Vermont  House  of  Representa- 
tives in  1801  and  1S02  ;  Representative  in  Congress  trom 
1803  to  1809  ;  Representative  to  the  .State  Legislature  in

Samuel  Hayes  Elliot,  son  of  Samuel  Elliot,  ante,  was 
born  at  Brattleboro,  Vt.,  October  23.  1S09  ;  graduated  at 
Union  College.  Schenectady.  N.  Y.,  in  1841  ;  studied 
Theology  at  New  Haven,  Conn.;  was  pastor  of  the  Con- 
gregational church  at  Woodbridge,  New  Haven  county, 
Conn.,  and  subsequently  at  Westville.  a  suburb  of  New 
Haven,  where  he  also  started  and  conducted  the  West 
Rock  Seminary  until  his  health  failed,  in  1855,  when  he 
removed  to  New  Haven.  Through  his  remaining  yearsof 
declining  health  he  preser\'ed  a  remarkable  buoyancy  of 
spirit,  and  busied  himself  in  literary  and  mercan'tile  pur- 
suits until  hisdeath.  which  occurred  September  n,  1869. 
He  left  a  wife  and  four  children. 

Mr.  J.  H.  Elliot,  to  whom  we  are  indebted  for  most  of 
our  information  in  relation  to  the  Brattleboro  branch  of 
the  FUliot  family,  is  a  newspaper  man  ;  he  wrote  us  under 
date  of  Brattleboro.  May  9,  i8~S  :  "I  was  one  of  the  editors 
and  proprietors  of  the  Home  Journal,  New  York,  five 
years,  and  have  been  a  newspaper  writer  all  my  Hie,  but 
have  never  yet  published  in  book  form." 

We  believe  Mr.  Elliot  has  recently  (1879,)  resumed 
his  position  ou  the  Home  Journal.  He  was  a  son  of  Ed- 
win Dav  Elliot,  who  was  an  elder  brother  of  Rev.  Samuel 
Hayes  Elliot.

Mr.  Emerson  resided  at  Windsor.  Vt..  and  was  one  of 
the  most  prominent  bankers  and  business  men  in  the 
State  prior  to  1837;  his  trade  iu  furs  and  peltries  with  the 
Indians  and  In'dlan  traders  at  the  west,  especially  in 
Michigan,  was  verj' extensive.  There  is  a  story  that  iu 
trading  with  the  Indians  his  foot  was  reckoned  to  weigh 
a  certain  number  of  pounds,  ami  the  Indians  _  must  pile 
furs  enough  into  the  opposite  scale  to  balance  it. 

Mr.  Emerson  held  a  bond  against  one  Thomas  Palmer, 
a  dealer  in  furs  at  Detroit,  on  which  the  interest  was 
behind,  and  the  following  unique  letter  by  Mr.  Emerson 
to  his  attorney  iu  Detroit  relates  somewhat  to  the  mutter:

Windsor,  Vt.,  August  i,  1834. 
Henry  S.  Cole,  Esq.,  Attorney-at-Law: 

My  Dear  Hal: — I  am  rejoiced  to  say  to  you  that  the 
Lord  hath  been  among  us  here  in  Windsor;  that  a  day  of 
Pentecost  is  here,  and  that  there  has  been  an  outpouring 
of  the  Holy  Ghost,  and  I  have  been  snatched  as  a  brand 
from  the  burning.  I  am  now  "laying  up  all  my  treas- 
ures in  Heaven,  where  neither  moth  nor  rust  doth  cor- 
rupt, and  where  thieves  do  not  break  through  and  steal." 
Oh,  Hal!  how  I  wish  you  and  our  old  friend,  Tom 
Palmer,  might  see  the  error  of  your  ways.  By  the  by, 
Mr.  Palmer  has  not  paid  the  interest  on  the  bond  for 
nearly  two  years;  now  I  learn  that  the  "pestileuc  e  is 
stalking  at  noon-day"  among  you,  and  we  know  not  how 
soon  you  may  go.  Mr.  Palmer  ought  to  settle  that  bond. 
You,  and  he  too.  ought  to  prepare  for  lieath.  and  he 
ought  certainly  to  settle  that  bond  at  once.  Oh,  Hal,  if 
God  would  only  open  your  eyes,  and  Mr.  Palmer  ,  surely 
he  will  pay  the  interest  on  that  bond  now.  I  pray  nightly 
and  daily  for  you  and  Mr.  Palmer;  and  trust  he  will  pay 
the  interest  on  his  bond.  That  the  Lord  will  guard  and 
keep  you,  dear  Hal,  and  my  friend  Palmer,  is  our  con- 
stant prayer;  but  do  make  him  pay  the  interest  on  the 
bond.  I  will  take  furs  shingles,  lumber,  apples,  fish,  or 
anything  he  has.  God  bless  and  presen'e  you  both;  but 
please  do  not  let  Mr.  Palmer  forget  to  pav  the  interest  on 
the  bond. 

Your  devoted  friend, 

Thomas  Emerson. 

Harry  Cole  and  Thomas  Palmer  both  survived  the 
cholera,  and  the  bond  was  paid.

Mr.  Fessenden  commenced  the  publication  of  the  New 
England  Farmer's  Almanac  in  1S2S ;  Boston.  Continued. 
He  also  published  one  or  two  addresses. 

Mr.  Fessenden  was  the  sou  of  the  Rev.  Thomas  Fes- 
senden, the  minister  at  Walpole;  and  was  born  in  Wal- 
pole, April  22,  1771;  died  in  Boston,  November  11.  1S37. 
fie  was  graduated  at  Dartmouth  College  in  1796,  paying 
his  expenses  chiefly  by  his  own  exertions.  In  the  autumn 
of  179'j  he  commenced  the  study  of  the  law  in  Rutland, 
and  after  completing  his  preparatory  studies  he  formed  a 
law  partnership  with  the  Hon.  Nathaniel  Chipman,  but 
was  more  inclined  to  literature  than  the  law. 

In  1801  he  was  employed  as  an  agent  for  a  company 
termed  in  Vermont  tor  the  purpose  of  securing  in  I*on- 
don  a  patent  for  some  new  invention,  and  while  there  it 
is  said,  being  in  want  of  money  in  consequence  of  the 
failure  of  his  patent  right  and  other  enterprises,  he  pro- 
duced "Terrible  Tractoratiou,"  which  was  a  success,  and 
two  or  three  editions  were  published  in  London. 

Returning  to  this  country,  he  settled  at  Boston  in  1804  ; 
and  in  1805  published  "Democrac}'  Unveiled,"  and  other 
poems.  He  then  published  the  Weekly  Inspector  in  New 
York  about  one  year.  This  was  the  first  paper  in  the 
country  to  advocate  the  tuodem  "Know  nothing"  doctrine, 
as  to  people  of  foreign  birth  ;  and  it  lived  from  August  30. 
i8c6  to  August  22,  1807.  In  1S12  he  returned  to  the  law, 
opening  an  office  at  Bellows  Falls  ;  and  in  1815  removed 
to  Brattleboro,  where  he  published  the  Reporter,  a  politi- 
cal paper,  about  one  year,  and  then  edited  the  "Bellows 
Falls  Intelligencer"  from  1S16  to  1821,  from  which  time 
until  his  death  he  resided  in  Boston  as  the  editor  of  the 
"New  Eneland  Farmer,"  also  of  the  "Horticultural  Reg- 
ister," and  the  "Silk  Manual."  all  published  in  Boston.

LETTER   FROM   MR.    FLANDERS. 

Lowell.  March  8.  1879. 
I  send  you  today  the  sketch  you  were  kind  enough    to 
solicit  last  September.     Pardon  my  long  andlreally  need- 
less delay.  Yours  trulv. 

G.  T.Flanders. 
My  full  name  is  George  Truesdel  Flanders:  I  was  born 
in  the  town  of  Vershirc,  Vt..  June,  28,  1820.     \'ery  early  in 
niv  childhood  my  father  moved  to  Orange,  where  he  oc- 
cupied a  small  farm;  1  am  therefore  son  of  a  farmer,  and

my  ancestry  consists  of  farmers  as  far  back  as  I  can  trace 
my  descent.  In  Orange,  which  I  usually  speak  of  as  my 
native  place,  lor  1  know  comparatively  nothing  of  Ver- 
shire,  1  recei\-ed  a  good  common  school  education,  and 
an  academic  education  at  the  then  famous  Newbury  Sem- 
inary. The  degree  of  D.  D.  was  conferred  by  Lombard 
University  in  1S71.  I  entered  the  Universalist  ministry  at 
the  age  of  19,  and  my  chief  pastorates  ha\e  been  Balti- 
more, Cincinnati,  Chicago  and  New  York.  I  have  pub- 
lished several  addresses  and  sermons,  and  in  1847  a  book 
of  304  pages  entitled  :  A  Review  of  Ale.vander  Hall's 
"Umversalism  against  Itself,"  by  G.  T.  Flanders,  2anes. 
ville,  Ohio,  1847.  In  1842  I  edited  and  published  one  vol- 
ume of  a  religious  journal,  entitled  "The  Genius  of 
Truth." 

Of  late  years,  though  actively  engaged  in  the  ministry, 
my  attention  has  been  chiefly  given  to  Oriental  studies, 
and  I  have  written  several  articles,  chiefly  on  India,  its 
Religions  and  Philosophies,  which  have  been  published 
in  the  Universalist  Quarterly  Review.  My  life  has  been 
an  active  one,  filled  with  preaching,  debating,  writing 
and  study,  and  books  have  always  been  my  dearest 
friends.  I  have  accumulated  a  small  library  of  1,200  \ol- 
umes,  in  which  is  one  of  the  most  valuable  private  col- 
lections of  Oriental  books  in  New  England.  I  am  now 
settled  over  one  of  the  largest  Universalist  parishes  in 
Massachusetts,  at  Lowell. 

Such  is  the  briefest  outline  of  my  life,  and  that  I  believe 
is  all  you  want. 

Rev.  Dr.  Flanders  preached  his  farewell  sermon  at 
Lowell,  Sunday,  June  I,  1S79,  and  on  the  7th,  sailed  on  a 
visit  to  Algeria,  Africa.

Gleig,  George  Robert. 

Mr.  Gleig,  a  clergyman,  was  born  in  England.  1795,  and 
received  his  education  at  Oxlord.  Having  something  of  a 
military  taste  he  joined  the  British  army  and  served  in 
the  Peninsula  war,  and  subsequently  with  the  British 
army  in  the  United  States,  in  the  campaign  against  Wash- 
ington in  the  war  of  1812.  He  was  an  eloquent  and  volu- 
minous writer,  and  his  military  experience  had  a  tendency 
to  direct  his  pen  toward  a  similar  field  iu  literature. 
Among  hLs  productions  of  this  class  may  be  mentioned  a 
"Military  History  of  Great  Britain,"  a  "Life  of  the  Duke 
of  Wellington,"  and  many  tales  of  the  army,  one  series 
of  which  was  published  iu  1829,  under  the  title  of  the 
"Chelsea  Pensioners"  (See  Alliboue).  "Saratoga"  formed 
one  of  this  collection,  and  has  been  republished  in  this 
country,  in  a  volume  entitled  "Tales  of  Mili- 
tary lyife,  Second  Series,  Philadelphia,  1S33." 
It  is  a  narrative  of  the  campaign  of  Gen.  Bur- 
goyne  from  the  time  that  he  took  command  of  the 
British  army  at  Montreal,  until  hi3  surrender  to  Gen. 
Gates,  and  is  assumed  to  have  been  related  by  one  Capt. 
Macdirk  to  his  companions.  The  worthy  Captain  is 
himself  the  hero  of  his  own  story,  and  fortunately  for  the 
hungry  ears  of  his  auditors  he  was  continually  placed 
in  the  most  exciting  positions,  and  where,  loo,  he  had 
ample  opportunity  to  study  the  movements  of  his  General. 
In  the  opening  chapter  he  tells  us  that  he  joined  a  com- 
pany of  Provincials,  composed  mostly  of  Scotch 
emigrants,  or  descendants  of  old  soldiers,  who  had  set- 
tled along  the  St.  Lawrence,  and  which  was  commanded 
by  a  gallant  countryman  of  their  own,  one  Kraser. 

Until  within  a  few  years  "Saratoga"  has  been  con- 
sidered as  a  very  good  specimen  of  historical  fiction,  and 
nothing  more;  but  a  liberal  extract  from  it  has  been 
lifted  to  a  higher  dignity  by  Volume  i  of  the  "Collec- 
tions of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society."  The  extract 
in  question  may  be  found  in  the  latter  volume,  commenc- 
ing on  page  211  and  ending  on  page  223,  and  headed 
"Account  of  the  Battle  of  Bennington,  by  Glich,  a  Ger- 
man Officer  who  was  in  the  Engagement,  under  Colonel 
Baum."  Thi'%  "account"  comes,  body  and  soul,  right  out 
of  Rev.  Mr.  Cleig's  story,  and  not  the  least  singular  part 
of  it  is,  where  the  heading  as  above  quoted  sprung 
from.  We  have  seen  that  Captain  Macdirk  is  the  hero, 
but  who  is  Mr.  Glich,  the  German  officer?  Rev.  Isaac 
Jennings  in  his  "Memorials  of  a  Century,"  of  Bennington, 
has  quoted  from  the  account,  {although  he  spells  the 
name  GUck,)  as  also  has  Mr.  K.  W.  Coburn  in  his  "Cen- 
tennial History  of  the  Battle  of  Bennington."  Some  one 
has  committed  quite  a  mistake,  and  unless  marked 
attention  is  called  to  it,  it  may  assume  alarming  propor- 
tions in  the  years  to  come.  A  volume  of  such  value  as 
either  of  those  of  the  "Collections  of  the  \'ermont  His- 
torical Society"  is  not  allowed  to  slumber  in  the  dust  on 
a  hidden  shelf,  but  is  often  taken  down,  and  its  contents 
with  pleasure  read  and  noted  by  the  historical  student. 
Surely  we  have  in  history  enough  of  that  which  is  false 
without  borrowing  from  the  pages  of  romance. 

F.    W.  C. 

The  above  article  has  been  kindly  furnished  by  Mr.  F. 
W.  Coburn,  of  Boston,  author  of  "Centennial    History  of 


the  Hattle  of  Heuiiington,"  and  in  that  work  was,  as  he 
states,  iiiiuscll  a  victim  of  the  "Glich  Narrative  Ro- 
mance," as  quoted  by  Rev.  Mr.  Jennings  in  "Memorials," 
and  by  the  publishing  committee  in  Vermont  Historical 
Society  Collections.  The  result  of  my  investigations  in 
relation  to  the  subject  is  confirmatory  of  the  correctness 
of  tlie  article  by  I\J  r.  Coburn. 

See  Cobuin.  F.  W. 

I  extract  the  following  from  Rev.  Dr.  Gleig's  preface 
written  in  1840  for  an  edition  of  the  Chelsea  Pensioners  : 
"Of  "Saratoga"  1  have  nothing  to  say,  except  that  1  be- 
lieve it  to  contain  a  tolerably  accurate  narrati\e  of  Gen- 
eral Burgoyne's  disastrous  campaign;  and  that  as  it 
makes  no  pretention  to  more  than  this,  it  must  be  taken 
for  what  it  is  worth.  The  by-plot,  if  such  it  may  be 
called,  is  by  far  too  unimportant  to  deserve  notice."

European  Missions  among  the  Zulus  ;  and  a  Biogrraphical 
Sketch  of  Rev.  John  T.  Vanderkemp.  Various  addresses, 
sermons  and  papers  by  Mr.  Grout  have  been  published 
in  the  Missionary  Herald,  Vermont  Chronicle  and  other 
periodicals. 

Rev.  Lewis  Grout  was  born  in  Newfane,  Vt.,  January 
28.  1815.  He  was  the  son  of  Deacon  John  Grout  and 
Azubah  (Dunklee)  Gioul.  His  father  was  a  native  of 
Westminster,  and  his  mother  of  Brattleboro,  Vt.  Lewis 
was  the  oldest  of  nine  children,  eight  of  whom  were 
sons.  They  were  accustomed  to  worship  with  the 
Congregational  church  in  Marlboro  until  1836,  when  they 
removed  from  Newfane  to  West  Brattleboro.  Lewis  at- 
tended the  Brattleboro  Academy  in  1834-5-6-7.  He 
taught  a  district  school  in  Marlboro  in  the  winter  1835-6. 
in  Putney  1836-7.  and  in  East  Guilford  1837-8-  He  attend- 
ed Burr  Seminary  in  1838.  entered  Yale  College  the  same 
year,  and  graduated  thence  in  1S42.  During  a  portion  of 
the  latter  part  of  his  collegiate  course  he  was  engaged 
in  teaching  in  a  milltan.-,  classical  and  mathematical 
school  at  West  Point,  N.  v..  where  he  also  taught  a  year 
after  graduating.  He  also  studied  Theology  for  two 
years  at  Vale  Divinity  College,  1S44,  a»d  1845^  and  one 
year  at  Andover  Theological  Seminar>',  where  he 
graduated  in  1846.  In  1841  he  paid  his  way  by  teaching 
a  few  hours  a  day  in  Miss  Comstock's  Ladies  Seminary, 
and  in  1S45  by  serving  as  Chaplain  in  the  family  of 
Gerard  Halleck,  Esq.,  editor  of  the  "  New  York  Journal 
of  Commerce."  October  8.  1S46,  he  was  ordained  as  a 
missionary,  and  married  the  same  day  to  Miss  Lydia 
Bates,  in  Springfield.  Vt.  He  set  sail  from  Boston,  Octo- 
ber 10.  for  South  Africa,  stopped  a  few  weeks  in  Cape 
Town,  and  reached  Natal,  Africa,  February  15,  1S47. 
Here,  among  the  Zulus,  in  the  District  of  Natal,  he 
labored  as  a  missionary  in  the  service  of  the  American 
Board,  for  fifteen  years,  and  at  the  end  of  that  time. 
March  12,  1S62,  with  impaired  health,  he  set  sail  for  his 
native  land,  and  landed  in  Boston  on  the  7th  of  June.  His 
mission  life  was  one  of  much  activity,  labor  and  study 
of  a  pioneer  character,  full  of  solid  reality,  yet  not  a  lit- 
tle diversified  with  what,  in  America,  ft'ould  be  regarded 
as  wild  and  romantic.  Giving  much  time  and  attention 
to  the  study  of  African  languages,  especially  the  Zulu,  of 
which  it  became  his  duty  by  appointment  of  the  mission 
of  which  he  was  a  memher,  to  prepare  a  grammar  ; 
translating  the  Scriptures,  and  preparing  other  books  in 
the  Zulu  tongue  for  the  natives;  having  charge  of  the 
printing  press  foe  a  time  at  his  station;  teaching, 
preaching  and  gathering  a  church;  traveling  and  ex- 
ploring: establishing  a  station  where  there  was  no  trace 
of  either  Christianity  or  civilization,  and  so  obliged  to 
be.  for  himself  and  his  people,  architect  and  carpenter, 
brickmaker  and  mason,  wheelwright  and  blacksmith, 
physician  and  dentist,  farmer  and  magistrate;  to  say 
nothing  of  finding  or  building  roads  fording  rivers, 
catching  leopards ;  nothing  of  incidental  studies  in 
Natural  History,  of  preparing  a  sketch  of  the  native 
tribes,  of  having  now  and  then  a  controversial  tilt,  as 
with  the  Colonial  government  {in  behalf  of  the  home  or 
English  governTuent,  the  cause  of  humanity  and  Christian 
missions,)  respecting  the  lands  and  rights  of  aborigines, 
or  with  Bishop  Colenso  on  Biblical  teaching  and  moral 
science,  or  the  proper  treatment  of  polygamy  among  a 
heathen  people  in  their  coming  to  embrace  the  Christian 
faith  and  enter  the  church, — the  subject  of  this  sketch 
found  little  time  to  be  idle,  or  even  to  take  the  rest  which 
a  tropical  clime  made  doubly  important.  Having  re- 
turned to  America,  and  been  restored  to  a  good  measure 
of  health,  Mr.  Grout  preached  a  year  for  the  Congiega- 
tional  church  in  Saxtons  River,  Vt.,  and  then  accepted 
a  call  to  the  church  in  Feeding  Hills.  Mass.,  where  ha 
was  installed  as  pastor,  and  continued  to  labor  till  the 
lirst  ot  October.  1865.  Ht  then  received  an  appointment 
from  the  American  Missionary  Association  as  secretary 
and  agent  o(  that  Society  for  New  Hampshire  and  Ver 
mont,  and  continued  in  the  same  till  18S4;  after  which 
he  served  a  year  as  financial  agent  of  Atlanta  University. 
In  June.  1885,  he  entered  upon  pastoral  work  in  charge  of 
the  church  in  Sudbury.  Vt.,  and  continued  in  this  till 
September,  iSSS.  Returning  then  to  his  home  in  W'est 
Brattleboro.  he  has  been  engaged  in  a  variety  of  literary 
labors,  of  a  historic,  philological  and  missionary  charac- 
ter.

Chicago.  June  19,  1879. 
Mr.  Gilman  -.—Dear  Sir  .-—Your  favor  of  the  i6th  is 
just  at  hand.  I  am  too  modest  perhaps  to  write  my  own 
"sketch."  I  will  give  you  the  outlines,  and  you  may  fill 
the  skeleton.  Born  in  Chester,  November  i,  1817.  Didn't 
have  first-rate  chance  at  school.  Folks  were  not  rich. 
Started  West  in '36  peddling.  Probably  as  green  an  18- 
years-old  as  ever  went  out  of  Chester  on  a  peddlrr's 
wagon.  Sold  lots  of  maps  in  1836.  but  could  not  sell 
'em  in  1S37.  They  were  "getting  down  to  specie  pay- 
ment and  Slate  banks"  that  year. 

In  1839  went  to  Kentucky  to  work  at  my  trade,  car- 
penter and  joiner,  or  ket-p  scnool.  Found  folks  there 
who  did  not  know  as  much  of  books  as  I  did,  so  I  kept 
school  till  1844  in  the  same  village.  Was  good  teacher. 
Went  back  to  Vermont,  worked  at  my  trade  summers, 
and  kept  school  winters — successful  teacher.  Attended 
school  teachers' conventions,  etc.,  and  folks  thought  I 
knew  something  about  schools,  so  made  me  superintend- 
ent of  schools  in  Reading  and  Cavendish.  My  reports 
were  published  for  several  years.  Have  not  a  copy  my- 
self, and  don't  know  where  there  is  one.  No  great  loss  I 
reckon.  In  the  fall  of  1856  was  appointed  by  Judge 
Young  Assistant  State  Naturalis^t.  and  put  up  the  first 
cabinet  in  the  old  State  House.  The  same  fall  was  ap- 
pointed first  assistant  State  Geologist  under  Prof.  E. 
Hitchcoi'k.  Worked  tour  years  in  the  survey  of  the 
State,  and  in  1S61  published  the  result  of  our  labors  in 
two4to  vols.  In  1S59  furnished  H.  F.  Walling  a  geological 
map  of  Vermont,  and  in  iS5o-6i  published  it  and  the  Stale 
map  got  up  by  him  and  myself.  My  name  as  publisher, 
don't  appear  very  conspicuous  on  the  map,  but  I  was  the 
mnn. 

In  1865,  Gov.  Dillingham  sent  me  commission  with  re- 
quest to  report  what  I  knew  about  re-stocking  the  Con- 
necticut River  with  sea-fish.  1  didn't  know  anything, 
but  at  his  request,  "out  of  courtesy  to  the  Legislature  of 
New  Hampshire,"  I  kept  the  commission  and  next  year 
Hon.  Charles  Barrett  and  I  made  report,  and  were  ap- 
pointed Fish  Commissioners  for  five  years.  We  reported 
in  the  years  1S66,  '67  and  '69.  During'  the  war,  after  the 
Geolojjical  Report  wa-*  out,  I  went  as  an  expert  to  nearly 
every  mine,  quarrj-  and  oil-well  in  the  United  States  and 
British  Colonies.  Made  lots  of  reports  which  were  pub- 
lished. I  think  I  have  a  dozen  or  more  at  my  residence 
— perhaps  20 — may  give  the  titles,  etc.,  sometime.  W'as 
commissioned  November  i,  1866,  "to  attend  theTniversal 
Exposition  of  1S67.  Paris,  France,  in  behalf  of  Ver- 
mont." Also  February  20,  1S67.  was  commissioned  by 
the  Grand  Lodge  of  V'ermonl  to  "represent  it  in  such 
grand  and  secular  lodges  in  Great  Britai;'  and  on  the 
Continent  of  Europe  as  he  may  \isit  the  ensuing  year." 

1  was  not  particularly  smart  at  anything,  but  in  all 
things  ivas faithjul — did  the  best  I  could.  Neverhad  an 
investigation,"  so  never  was  "white-washed,"  or  "cen- 
sured, as  teacher  or  official.  In  1870  made  the  great 
mistake  of  my  life  by  leaving  the  good  old  State  to  accept 
the  office  of  State  Geologist  of  Missouri.  Made  one  report 
which  was  published  and  maps  of  29  counties  on  the  scale 
of  4  miles  to  the  inch,  which  was  printed.  My  reports 
greatly  otTended  some  of  the  men  who  owned  stock  in 
the  *'Tin  Mine"  so-called.  The  State  Senate  voted  unan- 
imously to  suppress  my  reports.  I  had  said  there  was,  to 
my  mind,  no  e\idence  that  tin  ore  was  to  be  found  in  the 
State.  I  didn't  know  enough  to  know  tin,  and  so  Gratz 
Brown  discharged  me.  No  tin  yet.  however.  1  came 
here  in  1S73,  April  1.  and  entered  the  Washingtonian 
Home  as  its  Superintendent,  remained  there  iS  months. 
There  are  lots  of  reformed  men  in  this  city  of  my  make 
when  there.  Five  have  lived  and  died  sober— so  Ma/ 
uttmher  may  be  counted  as  cr.rtainly  reformed.  Out  of 
313  about  100  were  reformed.  The  lotli  Annual  report  of 
Washingtonian  Home  contains  my  report,  pp.  40,  Chicago, 
1S74  :  Clark  and  Edwards,  Printers. 

I  ha\e  also  got  up  two  reports  of  the  Sons  of  \'erniont. 
1st  and  2d.— or  most  of  the  ist,  and  all  the  second.  F.  B. 
Williams  was  tlic  Secretary,  but  I  did  that  part  of  the 
work.  So  you  see  I  have  dabbled  in  several  things  before 
I  came  here.  Have  written  considerable  for  newspapers, 
and  some  for  magazines.  I  have  two  diplomas— one  from 
Amherst,  which  conferred  the  honorable  degree  of  A. 
M  ,  and  one  from  the  Imperial  Geological  College  of 
Vienna,  of  which  I  am  corresponding  member.  Perhaps 
these  last  are  not  worth  naming.  I  said  to  Prof.  Hitch- 
cock in  letter  of  acceptance  that  it  seemed  hardly  proper 
that  I  should  have  a  diploma  which  I  could  not  read.  He 
said,  "It  was  not  because  you  could   read   Latin  that  we

The  following  letter  from  Gov.  Hall  is  of  interest  in 
this  connection: 

NoHTH  Bennington,  December  20.  1878. 

Deai-  Sir  : — Fanny  W.  Hall,  about  whom  you  inquire, 
was  born  in  Grafton,  Vt.,  daughter  of  Rev.  William  Hall 
the  first  minister  of  that  town.  (See  Thompson's 
Gazetteer.)  She  was  sister  ofWilliam  Hall, Jr.,  who  was 
a  member  of  the  State  Council  in  1815.  (see  Vermont 
Council  Journal,  \'ol.  vi,  pp.  62-3  and  index,)  a  member  of 
the  Assembly  several  years,  and  also  a  member  of  the 
Hartford  Convention,  the  only  stain,  if  it  be  one,  on  his 
patriotism  and  worth.  She  was  also  sister  of  Dr. 
Frederick  Hall,  Professor  in  Middiebury  College  and 
other  institutions,  etc.,  etc.  (See  Allen's  and  Drake's 
Biographical  Dictionaries.)  She  also  had  a  brother 
David  A.  Hall,  a  lawyer,  who  died  in  Washington  City, 
many  years  ago.  I  was  personally  acquainted  with 
Miss  Hall,  who  was  once  at  my  house  in  Bennington. 
She  was  an  intelligent,  worthy  and  lady-like  woman. 
Not  many  months  ago  I  heard  of  her  as  living  in  the 
family  of  some  relative  in  Buffalo.  N.  Y.  She  must,  if 
living,  be  over  eighty  years  old,  and  remains  unmarried. 
She  has  been  in  the  habit  forniany  years  of  visiting  in 
the  family  of  the  Hon.  Charles  Barrett,  of  Grafton,  who 
if  you  desire  it,  can  give  you  more  particular  informa- 
tion about  her.  The  family  of  Halls  to  which  she  be- 
longs is  of  anoiher  line  than  mine,  and  also  from  that  of 
Benjamin  H.  Hall,  whose  ancestor,  Judge  Lot  Hall,  also 
resided  in  Windham  county. 

Very  respectfully  and  truly  yours, 

HiLAND  Hall.

The  following  reference  to  Vermont  in  the  above  work 
may  be  found  on  page  2S9,  in  the  author's  sketch  of  Rev. 
Dr.  Elihu  Spencer,  some  time  pastor  of  the  Presbyterian 
church  at  Trenton  :  "Ur.  Spencer  bequeathed  to  his  five 
surviving  daughters,  and  the  children  of  a  deceased 
one  three  thousand  acres  of  land  in  Saltash,  [now 
Plymouth]  Vermont,  and  to  his  son,  John  Eaton,  one 
thousand  acres  in  Woodstock,  Vermont.  There  still 
remains  in  the  possession  of  his  descendants  a  lot  of 
ground  in  the  city  of  Trenton  which  has  in  the  lapse  of 
time  become  more  valuable  than  all  the  Vermont  acres." 
Perhaps  so.

Mr.  Hall  was  born  in  Croyden,  N.  H.,  October  27,  1795, 
and  died  in  Brownington,  Vt.,  June  24,  1877.  After 
teaching  several  years,  he  studied  theology  with  the  Rev. 
Walter  Chapin,  of  Woodstock,  Vt.,  and  his  first  settle- 
ment was  at  Concord,  "N't.,  in  1822,  and  with  the  excep- 
tion of  about  ten  years  that  he  was  engaged  in  teaching 
in  Andover,  Mass.,  and  Plymouth,  N.  H.,  he  resided  in 
Vermont  until  his  death,  preaching  at  Craftsbury  and 
Brownington  from  1840  until  1867.  when  age  and  infirm- 
ities compelled  him  to  retire  mainly  from  active  sennce. 
He  supplied  at  Granby  and  Victory  about  two  years,  in 
1872-4.  Besides  those  above  mentioned  Mr.  Hall  pub- 
lished several  other  small  volumes,  and  contributed  nu- 
merous articles  to  the  Journal  of  Education,  and  other 
educational  periodicals ;  he  also  rendered  important 
assistance  to  Prol.  Hitchcock  in  the  Geological  Survey  of 
Vermont.  While  at  Concord  Mr.  Hall  established  and 
taught  a  Normal  School,  which  it  is  claimed  was  the  first 
in  the  country  ;  at  any  rate  he  was  the  first  teacher  to 
introduce  the  black-board  into  the  school  room.

Of  Gen.  Hawkins's  own  collection,  the  List  of  Libraries 
of  All  Countries.  Leipsic,  1895,  says  :  ' 

"As  representing  the  early  presses  of  Europe,  this  has 
no  rival  among  the  private  collections  of  the  world. 
There  are  205  books  representing  106  of  the  first  printers 
of  the  fifteenth  century,  who  set  up  presses  In  as  many 
different  places  before  the  year  15CI.  Of  these  53  are  first 
books  of  first  presses.  There  are  about  ^00  other  fifteenth 
century  books  of  importance."  Since  this  list  was  sent  to 
the  Leipsic  publisher  several  valuable  items  have  been 
added  by  Gen.  Hawkins  to  his  already  unequalled  col- 
lection. Of  two  volumes  he  possesses  the  only  copies 
known  to  be  in  existence.

Rush  Christopher  Hawkins,  A.  M.,  Brevet  Brigadier 
General,  U.  S.  V.,  and  officer  of  the  Legion  of  Honor  of 
France,  was  born  at  Pomfret,  Vt.,  September  14th.  1831. 

His  father,  Lorenzo  Dow  Hawkins,  was  a  son  of  Dex- 
ter Hawkins,  a  soldier  of  the  Revolution,  who  served  in 
one  of  the  Rhode  Island  regiments  ;  his  mother  was 
Louisa  Maria  Hutchinson,  a  great-granddaughter  of  Rev. 
Aaron  Hutchinson,  of  Connecticut,  who  graduated  at 
Yale  College  in  1747,  moved  to  Vermont  in  1776,  and  was 
the  first  settled  Cnugregational  raiuister  in  the  central 
(eastern)  section  of  that  State.  The  Woodstock  Society 
founded  by  him  still  exists.  Before  moving  to  Vermont 
he  had  charge  of  a  congregation  at  Grafton  in  Massachu- 
setts. He  was  one  of  the  most  accomplished  classical 
scholars  of  his  time.  Young  Hawkins  left  Vermont  before 
he  was  fifteen  years  old.  and  until  1S61  his  time  was 
divided  for  the  most  part  between  New  York  and  the 
Western  States  ;  and  between  the  study  of  the  law  and 
business  tours  in  the  West. 

At  the  breaking  out  of  the  War  of  the  Rebellion  he  was 
at  the  head  of  an  independent  company  of  Zouaves  in 
New  York,  organized  ior  the  purpose  of  attaining,  as 
near  as  possible,  to  perfection  in  infantry  drill.  The 
evening  after  President  Lincoln's  first  proclamation  call- 
ing for  troops,  its  members  resolved  to  tender  their  ser- 
vices to  the  Government,  and  at  half  past  seven  o'clock 
the  next  morning  Captain  Hawkins  was  in  the  executive 
chamber  of  the  Governor,  being  the  first  citizen  of  the 
State  of  New  York  to  tender  his  services  and  those  of  his 
company  for  the  su^tpression  of  the  Rebellion. 

Between  the  17th  and  26th  days  of  April,  1S61,  he  raised 
and  organized  the  Ninth  Regiment  of  New  York  Volun- 
teer Infantry,  which  was  afterward  better  known  as 
"Hawkins' Zouaves."  It  participated  iu  the  movement 
again.st  Big  Bethel,  the  capture  of  Hatteras  Inlet,  the  af- 
fair of  Chicomoconiico.  the  capture  of  Roanoke  Island, 
the  attack  upon  Winton,  N.  C.  the  battle  of  South  Mills, 
where  General  Hawkins  was  wounded;  South  Mountain; 
Antietam,  where  the  regiment  lost  more  than  sixty-three 
per  cent  of  its  numbers  engaged;  Fredericksburg  and  the 
siege  of  Suffolk,  and  was  nnistercd  out  of  the  service  in 
June,  iS6.^.  Gen  Hawkins  had  charge  of  the  perilous 
work  of  innding  the  Union  troops  through  the  surf  at 
Hatteras  Inlet.  N.  C.  in  August,  1S61,  and  with  the  aid  of 
the  small  tugboat  Fanny,  rescued  from  loss  a  hulk 
load  of  soldiers  from  his  own  regiment,  which  had  been 
anchored  and  left  in  a  niost  dangerous  position  among 
the  breakers.  In  February,  1S62.  during  the  advance  of 
an  expedition  up  the  Chowan  River  to  Winton,  Gcu. 
Hawkins  saved  from  capture  the  gunboat  Delaware  with 
two  companies  of  troops  on  board  and  Vice-Admiral 
Rowan.  This  vessel  was  in  the  lead  of  the  expedition, 
and  during  the  ascent  of  the  river  Gen.  Hawkins  was  on

the  crosstrees  of  the  foremast,  from  which  positiou  he 
discovered  a  large  force  of  rebel  infantry  and  artillery 
concealed  among  the  trees  and  underbrush  along  the 
bank,  of  the  river  in  front  of  Winton.  in  time  to  prevent 
the  vessel  from  going  to  the  wharl,  where  she  would  have 
been  easily  captured.  As  a  result  of  his  discovery-  the 
Delaware  sheered  ofl.  under  a  heavy  fire  of  musketry  and 
artillery,  which  opened  as  soon  as  the  enemy  saw  that 
they  were  discovered.  The  gunboat  escaped  though 
struck  by  more  than  150  bullets  before  she  got  out  of 
range.  Gen.  Hawkins'  escape  from  death  was  a  narrow 
one,  the  ratlines  being  cut  out  of  hi'^  hands  by  the  bullets, 
while  he  was  descending  to  the  deck.  The  Union  forces 
returned  the  next  morning,  bombarded,  and  captured 
the  town  and  burned  a  part  of  it. 

At  Plymouth,  on  the  Roanoke  River.  Geu.  Hawkins 
organized  the  first  body  of  loyal  North  Carolina  troops, 
and  created  a  nucleus  around  which  was  formed  the 
First  Re;dment  of  North  Carolina  Volunteers.  Twenty 
of  these  volunteers  were  hung  by  the  rebel  General 
Pickett,  for  the  before  unknown  offence  of  constructive 
desertion— they  having  evaded  the  Confederate  con- 
scription. 

Gen.  Hawkins'  brigade  closed  the  fight  after  dark  upon 
the  disastrous  field  of  Fredericksburg.  December  13, 
1862.  In  the  evening  orders  having  been  given  which  in- 
dicated an  intention  to  renew  the  battle  the  next  morn- 
ing. Gen.  Hawkins  proceeded  to  the  headquarters  of 
Gen,  Wilcox,  where  he  met  some  general  officers  and 
protested  against  the  movement.  The  officers  present 
requested  Gen.  Hawkins  to  proceed  to  headquarters  and 
use  the  arguments  with  Gen.  Bumside  he  bad  used  with 
them  for  the  purpose  of  inducmg  him  to  reconsider  his 
declared  intention  to  renew  the  battle.  He  accordingly 
rode,  in  darkness,  and  deep  mud,  to  headquarters  at  the 
Philips  House,  where  he  had  a  protracted  mterview  with 
Generals  Sumner,  Hooker,  Franklin.  Park  and  Colonel 
Hardie,  during  which  Gen.  Bumside  entered  the  room 
and  announced  that  he  had  arranged  to  renew  the  at- 
tack the  next  morning.  The  Ninth  Corps  was  to  lead, 
and  turning  to  Gen.  Hawkins,  he  said  :  "Your  brigade 
shall  be  on  the  right  and  I  will  be  with  you."  Gen. 
Sumner  objected  ;  and  a  general  discussion  ensued.  The 
conclusion  was  reached  that  the  chances  were  ver>-  much 
against  success  ;  and  Gen.  Hawkins  recrossed  the  Rap- 
pahanock  with  verbal  orders  countermanding  tlie  ar- 
rangements for  a  second  attack. 

After  the  Battle  of  Antietam,  General  Hawkins  wrote 
to  Simeon  Draper,  a  confidential  friend  of  the  Secretary* 
of  War,  a  strong  letter,  describing  the  feeling  among  the 
volunteers  about  Gen.  McClellan,  and  giving  reasons 
why  he  should  be  removed  from  the  command  of  the 
Army  of  the  Potomac.  The  letter  was  read  by  Mr.  Draper 
to  Secretan,'  Stanton,  who  read  it  to  Pres  Lincoln.  When 
the  reading  was  finished,  the  President  said:  "That  is 
clear  and  to  the  point,  and  gives  me  a  better  idea  of  the 
feeling  in  the  army  than  I  have  ever  had  from  such  a 
source  before.  I  guess  we  must  have  a  new  commander." 
A  change  of  commanders  soon  after  took  place. 

In  July.  1862,  General  Hawkins  was  placed  under 
arrest  by  order  of  General  Bumside,  for  denouncing 
General  McClellan  as  a  failure,  but  was  released  without 
charges  having  been  preferred  against  him. 

After  the  end  of  his  term  of  service  in  the  field,  and 
until  the  end  of  the  Rebellion,  General  Hawkins  devoted 
his  entire  time  to  the  promotion  of  the  Union  cause. 

Since  the  close  of  his  military  career.  General  Hawkins 
has  been  an  active  participant  in  many  movements  con- 
nected with  political  reform,  local.  State,  and  federal.  In 
May,  1S64.  he  called  to  the  attention  of  the  Union  League 
Club  the  necessity  for  a  system  of  Civil  Sen-ice,  and  was 
appointed  with  Dr.  Francis  Lieberand  General  Hayes,  a 
committee  to  impress  the  importance  of  that  subject 
upon  the  people,  this  bein^  the  first  active  movement  in 
the  United  States  in  the  interest  of  reforming  a  great 
national  evil.  In  1S72  General  Hawkins  was  a  member 
of  the  New  York  Legislature;  seven  days  after  the  ad- 
journment, he  resigned  his  seat  and  soon  after  published 
his  "Statement"  to  his  constituents,  giving  an  account 
of  the  corrupt  work  of  the  session,  his  inability  to  stem 
the  current  of  corruption,  and  the  reasons  for  his  resign- 
ing. In  1S76  the  Union  League  Club  published  his  report 
relating  to  "The  Cause  of  the  Increase  of  the  City  Debt,'* 
which  IS  the  most  complete  account  of  the  frauds  of  the 
"Tweed  Ring"  ever  written.  In  1S84  he  published  his 
book  upon  the  Titles  of  the  earliest  publications  of  the 
fifteenth  centun,'.  His  collection  of  books  from  the  first 
fifteenth  century  presses  is  the  most  comprehensive  one 
in  the  United  States,  and  in  certain  respects  stands  sixth 
or  seventh  among  the  important  collections  of  this  class 
of  books  in  the  world.  In  it  are  many  works  illustrated 
with  very  early  examples  of  the  woodcutters'  art.  His 
library  also  comprises  a  large  collection  of  books  and 


pamphlets  relating  to  the  history  of  the  War  of  the  Re- 
bellion. 

In  1889  General  Hawkins  was  the  United  States  Fine 
Arts  Commissioner  at  the  Universal  Exposition  held  at 
Paris.  His  department  achieved  a  notable  succe.ss.  and 
it  was  due  to  his  well  directed  efforts  that  American  wood 
en^aving  received  that  universal  approval  to  which  it  is 
sojustly  entitled. 

Since  the  close  of  the  Civil  War.  General  Hawkins 
has  spent  more  than  half  his  time  in  Europe,  and  has 
visited  and  studied  the  principal  art  collections  and  libra- 
ries, public  and  private,  of  all  the  European  countries, 
except  those  of  Russia  and  Spain.  His  knowledge  of  art, 
bibliography,  and  the  early  history  of  wood  engraving 
has  made  him  an  acknowledged  authority  upon  those 
.subjects.  Devotion  to  his  high  ideals  of  duty;  fearless 
denunciation  of  wron^;  and  constant  endeavor  to  secure 
high  standards  of  political  and  social  purity,  have  marked 
his  life.

Mr.  JIaynes  was  a  prominent  character  in  Southwest- 
ern Vennont  for  37  years.    He  was  born,  (out  of  wedlock) 


at  West  Hartford.  Ct.,  July  18th,  1733;  his  father  was  an 
unnu.xed  Africau  negro,  and  his  motwr  a  white  woman 
of  "respectable  ancestry  in  New  England."  He  bore  the 
name  of  neither  his  father  or  mother,  and  tradition  says 
that  llis  mother,  in  a  fit  of  displeasure  with  her  host 
called  her  child  by  his  name.  He  was  abandoned  by 
both  his  parents,  and  when  five  months  old  was  carried  to 
Granville,  Mass.,  and  bound  out  as  a  sen'ant  until  he 
was  twenty-one,  to  a  pious  family  by  the  name  of  Rose, 
where  he  was  well  ticated,  and  became  pious.  He  "jfot 
his  education  in  the  chimney  corner.*'  He  was  a  patriot 
in  the  Revolution;  joined  the  "minute  men"  in  1774,  and

tion against  Ticonderoga,  in  1776.  which  is  the  last  we

influence  of  ^^r.  Haynes  she  received  spiritual  light  and 
the  hope  of  salvation,  and  to  compensate  her  aeliverer 
she  ofiered  him  her  heart  and  hand  for  life,  which  were 
accepted.  Mr.  Haynes  came  to  Vermont  in  17S5,  and  was 
settled  at  West  Rutland  until  1818,  when  he  preached  at

This  Harvard  Shakespeare  is  the  most  satisfactor\'  and 
complete  edition  ever  issued  in  this  couutrj',  not  only  be- 
cause it  is  remarkably  tasteful  and  convenient,  and  em- 
bodies the  results  of  the  latest  critical  studies,  but  be- 


cause it  is  suited  to  the  tastes  and  wants  of  the  average 
reader  as  well  as  students  and  scholars. 

This  is  the  edition  bjr  which  Mr.  Hudson  is  to  be 
known  in  the  coming  time.  Mr.  Hudson  is  one  of  the 
three  or  four  men  in  this  country  who  are  really  compe- 
tent either  to  edit  or  to  annotate  an  edition  of  Shake- 
speare. Mr.  Hudson  began  the  Harvard  Edition  in  1873, 
after  he  had  spent  years  of  faithful  toil  and  honest  sense 
on  both  Shakespeare's  text  and  Shakespeare's  meaning. 
With  excellent  judgment  he  has  given  the  textual  notes 
in  the  appendix  of  each  work,  while  the  explanatory 
notes  are  given  at  the  foot  of  each  page.  These  notes 
are  highly  judicious,  and  specially  commendable  for 
their  brevity.

Mr.  Hutchinson  was  born  in  Hebron,  Ct,  in  March, 
1722;  and  died  in  Pomfret.  Vt.,  September  27,  1800.  He 
was  graduated  at  Yale  College,  1747;  studied  theology, 
and  was  settled  over  the  Congregational  church  in  Graf- 
ton, Mass..  17.S0-1773.  In  1749  he  married  Miss  Margary 
Carter,  of  Hebron,  and  they  had  ten  children,  all  born  in 
Grafton.  About  1772-3  the  new  country  at  the  north 
began  to  attract  attention,  and  Mr.  Hutchinson  appears 
to  have  visited  the  valley  of  the  Upper  Connecticut  in 
April,  1774;  and  he  was  hired  by  the  respective  towns  of 
Hartford,  Pomfret  and  Woodstock,  to  become  the  pastor 
of  those  towns  for  five  years,  his  labors  having  already 
commenced.  July  4  1776,  he  moved  his  family  from 
Grafton  to  the  farm  in  Pomfret  where  he  resided  through 
his  life,  and  continued  preaching  in  the  towns  in  tne 
viciuity;  the  main  support  for  his  family  being  derived 
from  tile  cultivation  of  his  farm.  He  possessed  a  won- 
derful memory,  and  it  was  a  saying  that  if  the  New  Tes- 
tament should  be  lost,  he  could  repeat  it  entire.  He  gave 
out  and  recited  the  hymns  without  opening  the  hymn 
book:  he  fitted  many  young  men  for  college,  aud  his 
memory  enabled  him  to  dispense  with  books,  and  teach 
Latin  and  Greek  while  working  in  the  field,  his  pu])ils 
following  him  as  he  followed  the  plow  or  swung  the 
scythe.  He  had  been  invited  to  preach  the  sermon  be- 
fore the  Windsor  Convention  to  form  the  Slate,  but  the 
war  cloud  lowered  ominously,  and  he  thought  the  con- 
vention would  not  meet,  made  no  pieparations,  and  did 
not  appear;  accordingly  a  summons  was  sent  him  to  ap- 
pear before  the  convention  and  deliver  his  sermon;  he 


left  the  harvest  field,  and  after  a  dusty  ride  from  Pomfret 
to  Windsor,  delivered  bis  discourse  extempore,  which  the 
convention  so  highly  approved  that  it  was  ordered  to  be 
written  out  and  publi-shed.  But  he  was  slow  in  prepar- 
ing it,  and  had  to  be  spurred  up  to  the  work,  which  was 
finally  sent  to  the  Convention,  then  sitting  at  Benning- 
ton, in  September  following.  It  is  said  that  while  at  Graf- 
ton, he  fought  many  a  battle  for  Calvinism,  aL;ainst  the 
Armiuian  and  other  heretics. 

We  gather  the  above  facts  from  a  memoir  by  Henry 
Swan  Dana,  printed  in  the  Woodstock  Standard  of 
August  17,  24,  and  31,  1871.

with  five  wood  cuts,  probably  by  Benjamin  Tuel, 
which  are  as  dillicult  to  match  as  is  some  of  the  dialogue 
as  well  as  the  poetry. 

Mr.  Prescott,  the  printer  of  the  above  work,  came  from 
Concord,  N.  H.,  and  was  a  journeyman  printer,  and  it  is 
said  was  a  very  good  Shakespearean  scholar.  It  is  claim- 
ed on  very  good  authority  that  he  rendered  important 
assistance  to  Mr.  Kendall  in  the  above  work. 

The  Key  to  this  curious  book  is  this.  Joseph  Burnhani 
was  a  farmer  in  Pomfret,  who  was  convicted  of  a  rape 
and  sent  to  the  State  Prison  ;  his  son  George  Burnham,  a 
resident  of  New  York,  and  a  man  of  some  means,  used  to 
come  occasionally  to  Woodstock,  and  from  there  go  to 
Wiodsorto  lee  his  father.  During  one  of  these  visits  Jo. 
Burnhani  died,  was  carried  to  Woodstock,  and  buried. 

Some  months  after,  one  Joshua  Cobb  went  from  Wood- 
stock to  New  York,  and  while  there  wrote  to  friends  in 
Woodstock  that  Jo.  Buruham  was  alive  in  New  Y'ork;  he 
repeated  the  assertion  in  subsequent  letters,  and  another 
person  wrote  to  the  same  effect.  This  was  at  the  time 
when  anti-masonry  was  rampant  in  Vermont ;  and  at 
length  Jo.  Burnham'scase  became  involved  in  the  anti- 
masonic  excitement. 

It  became  the  general  belief  that  Burnham  had  been 
permitted  to  escape  from  Prison,  and  that  the  corpse  of 
another  person  had  been  buried  in  his  stead.  George 
Burnham  was  tjresumed  to  be  a  Mason,  so  was  the  Super- 
intendent of  the  State  prison.  It  was  supposed  that  by 
collusion  between  them  Jo.  was  allowed  to  leave  prison 
and  depart  the  State.  The  excitement  became  so  inteuse 
that  it  affected  the  Legislature  which  met  soon  after. 

A  committee  consisting  of  Robert  Pierpoint  was  sent  to 
New  Y'ork  by  the  Legislature  to  ascertain  if  Burnham 
was  still  there.  Citizens  of  Woodstock  also  went  to  New 
Y*ork  to  identify  their  man;  he  was  found  to  be  the  exact 
counterpart  of  Jo.  Burnham  in  everj-  particular  except 
the  voice,  and  that  alone  enabled  them  to  decide  that  he 
was  another  man.  To  make  assurance  doubly  sure,  the 
body  which  had  been  buried  was  disinterred,  and  though 
decay  had  done  its  work,  some  peculiarity  of  the  teeth 
made  it  evident  to  those  who  had  known  him,  that  Jo. 
Burnham  was  indeed  dead  and  buried.  Timothy  Tickle, 
Esq.,  the  author  of  the  "Doleful  Tragedy  of  Jo.  Burn- 
ham" was  Benjamin  F.  Kendall,  at  that  time  editor  of 
the  newspaper  "  Henry  Clay,"  at  Woodstock.  Some  of 
the  dramatis  pcrsonce  were  as  follows : 

Sir  Richard  Makefuss  was  R.  Makepeace  Ransom,  of 
South  Woodstock,  one  of  the  chief  agitators  in  Anti-ma- 
sonry, and  a  frequent  member  of  the  Legislature:  Elder 
Lovely  was  Rev.  Samuel  C.  Loveland,  a  Universalist  min- 
ister, then  of  Reading;  Parson  Raw-limbs,  was  Rev.  Mr. 
Rollins  of  Randolph,  at  one  time  editor  of  the  Vermont 
Luminary;  Landlord  Slate-stone,  was  James  Slay  ton,  of 
South  Woodstock ;  Squire  Deal-He-Knows,  was  Jabez 
Delano,  of  West  Windsor ;  Farmer  Dobbin  was  Amos 
Ralph  ;  Major  Hard-Face,  was  .Martin  Flint,  of  Randolph; 
Master  Slender  was  Joseph  Hemenway,  editor  of  the 
American  Whig ;  Lord  Mansfield  was  Hon.  Titus 
Hutchinson ;  General  Hoax-Em,  was  Gen.  Asaph 
Fletcher,  Sheriff  of  Windsor  County ;  Old  Mordaceous 
was  Jasper  Luce,  of  Hartland ;  Capt.  Bang'em  was  Capt. 
Bingham,  of  Woodstock;  Y'ardstick  wasTitus  Hutchinson, 
Jr.;  Deacon  Piggin  was  Amariah  Richmond  ;  Farmer 
Credulous  was  Daniel  Lockwood  ;  Demurrer  was  Richard 
Hazen,  a  pettifogger  of  Woodstock  ;  .\unt  Debby  was 
Mrs.  Daniel  Lockwood  ;  Long  Jaw,  Lysander  Raymond, 
of  Woodstock;  Hawk  Eye,  Hawkins,  of  Reading;  Aunt 
Debby,  Mrs.  Shaw,  of  Woodstock  ;  Judy,  Mrs.  Delano. 

An  Amnsfng  Episode  of  Anti-Masonic  History  In  Tcrniont. 

Somewhat  more  than  half  a  century  ago  Vermont  was 
convulsed  with  a  "doleful  tragedy"  second  only  in  its 
dark  and  mysterious  incidents  to  the  disappearance  of 
Morgan.  R.  A.  Perkins,  formerly  a  resident  of  Wood- 
stock, and  now  on  the  Springfield  Republican  staff,  has 
recently  gathered  up  the  facts  and  written  an  account  of 
this  aflTair  for  the  Bibliography  of  Vermont,  edited  by  M. 
D.  Gilman,  Esq.,  of  Montpelier.  Mr.  Perkins'  narrative 
is  as  follows : 

Kendall,  B.  P.  The  Doleful  Tragedy  of  the  Raising 
of  Jo  Burnham,  or  the  "Cat  Let  Out  of  the  Bag."  In  Five 
Acts.  By  Timothy  Tickle,  Esq.  Woodstock,  Vt.:  Printed 
by  William  W.  Prescott.     1838.    Small  i6mo.  pp.  96. 

Tlestoryof  this  little  book  involves  a  curious  chapter 
in  the  political  history  of  the  state,  which  may  be  told 
thus :  Joseph  Buruham,  a  middle-aged  Woodstock 
farmer,  was  convicted  of  rape  on  the  person  of  a  girl 
named  Sarah  Avery,  of  Pomfret,  and  sentenced  to  a  term 


in  the  state  prison.  He  was  of  Connecticut  birth,  and  for 
a  number  of  years  before  his  conviction  lived  in  Pom- 
fret, where  he  had  many  relatives.  Bumham's  character 
was  not  the  best,  but  neither  was  that  of  the  girl,  and  the 
general  belief  in  the  vicinity  was  that  he  suffered  unjust- 
ly. An  effort  was  made  to  get  him  pardoned  but  before 
final  action,  on  the  15th  of  October,  1S26,  he  died  in 
prison.  The  remains  were  given  to  his  son  George  two 
days  later,  taken  to  Woodstock,  and  interred  in  the  north 
burying  ground  in  that  towu,  by  the  easternmost  Pom- 
fret road.  The  story  is  simple  and  commonplace  enough 
so  far,  but  the  remarkable  part  began  soon  after  with 
the  circulation  of  a  rumor  that  a  man  named  I,yman 
Mower,  otherwise  called  Joshua  Cobb,  who  once  lived  in 
Woodstock  and  knew  Burnham  there,  had  seen  him  in 
New  York  city  alive  and  well,  going  by  the  name  of 
Patrick  Dolon.  The  matter  attracted  but  little  attention, 
however,  uutil  the  rising  of  the  masonic  question  in  Ver- 
mont politics  a  few  j-ears  later.  The  flood  tide  of  excite- 
meut  about  this  matter  was  nearly  reached  in  182Q.  The 
struggle  between  masons  and  anti-masons  had  become 
extremely  bitter,  and  then  this  old  Burnham  rumor, 
comiug  up  on  the  wave  of  feeling,  assumed  a  degree  of 
importance  which,  in  view  of  the  extremely  slight  evi- 
deuce  it  rested  upon,  now  seems  almost  incredible.  The 
excitement  caused  by  the  Morgan  abduction  was  at  its 
height,  and  this  Buruham  affair  took  a  place  as  a 
masonic  outrage.  The  superintendent  of  the  prison,  the 
physician  in  charge  aud  some  of  the  other  officers  were 
masons.  Burnham  himself  belonged  to  the  order  and  so, 
it  is  s.iid,  did  his  son  George,  who  lived  in  New  York  city 
and  had  been  active  in  seeking  for  the  release  of  his 
father  bv  executive  pardon.  It  was  charged  that  Buruham 
had  feigned  death  and  been  oermitted  to  escaoe  by  the 
aid  of  the  superintendent,  the  physicians  and  other 
masons,  while  the  body  of  another  man  was  buried  by 
his  friends  as  a  blind  ;  and  the  charge  came  to  have  a  be- 
lief so  large  as  to  be  almost  general,  although  w-arrauted 
by  no  eWdence  except  the  story  told  by  Mower,  and  he  a 
man  without  reputation  or  standing.  The  newspapers 
took  the  matter  up  in  the  summer  oilhe  year  last  named  ; 
charges  and  denials  were  made  at  every  point,  all  that 
could  be  got  in  the  semblance  of  evidence  one  way  or  the 
other  was  printed  and  hotly  disputed  about,  and  every 
day  the  excitement  increased.  Mower  made  an  afiida\nt 
setting  forth  that  he  saw  Burnham  in  New  Y'ork  in  the 
fall  of  1S26,  and  that  in  January  and  February.  182S,  he 
had  for  five  or  six  weeks  seen  and  talked  with  him 
almost  daily,  and  that  in  company  with  A.  P.  Parsons  he 
had  at  another  time  a  "long,  full  and  free  conversation 
with  him."  Aaron  B.  Cutter,  who  had  known  Burnham 
when  he  once  lived  at  West  Cambridge,  Mass., 
also  made  an  afhdavit  setting  forth  that  on  the  i6tli  ot 
July,  1829,  he  saw  the  man  in  New  Y'ork  and  had 
a  talk  with  him.  Cutter's  character  was  such,  however, 
that  his  evidence  was  thrown  entirely  aside  when  the 
formal  investigation  came.  Butl  these  affidavits,  with 
some  whispers  of  impending  developments  about  the 
prison,  were  at  the  time  of  their  publication  enough  to 
give  fury  to  the  popular  clamor,  and  in  the  latter  part  of 
October,  1S29,  the  selectmen  of  Woodstock  ordered  the 
disinterment  of  the  remains  buried  as  Bumham's  to  settle 
the  question  by  identification.  The  body  was  exhumed, 
but  could  not  possibly  be  identified  with  certainty,  and  in 
a  few  days  it  was  a  second  time  disinterred  in  the  pres- 
ence of  a  great  number  of  people,  but  with  no  better  re- 
sult. Somewere  positive  that  the  body  was  Bumham's, 
others  that  it  was  not  his,  and  the  question  was  as  far 
from  settlement  as  ever.  But  at  the  same  time,  as  the 
conduct  of  state  officers  was  in  question,  the  matter  was 
taken  to  the  legislature,  and  there  the  facts  were  at  last 
established.  The  general  assembly  appointed  R.  Pier- 
point,  J.  S.  Pettibone  and  John  Smith  an  investigating 
committee,  which,  on  the  28th  of  October,  made  a  re- 
port that  was  ordered  printed  in  the  newspapers.  By 
this  report  it  appears  that  after  the  committee  had  ex- 
amined the  olEcers  of  the  prison,  Mr.  Pierpoint  went  to 
New  York,  found  Mower,  and  offered  him  $500  if  he 
would  produce  Bumham  in  Vermont  within  fifteen  days, 
guaranteeing  a  pardon  for  the  latter.  Mower  insisted 
that  Burnham  was  lix-ing  under  the  name  of  Dolon,  but 
the  man  called  Dolon  being  found  by  Pierpoint.  Mower 
confessed  that  he  was  not  Burnhani  and  said  he  had  been 
deceived  as  to  the  fact  throughout.  Mower  made  an 
affidavit  by  which  he  claimed  to  have  been  honestly 
mistaken  in  the  affair,  but  the  committee  reported  that 
Dolon  had  lived  in  New  York  for  six  or  seven  years  and 
had  worked  for  Mower  on  abuilding  in  the  springof  the 
year  1826.  The  most  obvious  explanation  of  the  whole 
matter  is  that  some  resemblance  which  Dolon  bore  to 
Bumham  led  Mower,  alias  Cobb,  to  make  a  thoughtless 
remarkat  first,  and  that  as  the  excitement  rose  he  and 
others  lied  deliberately  from  love  of  mischiefand  notorie- 
ty.   The  committee's   report   concluded  :    "We  cannot

hesitate  to  say  that  Jo  Bumham  died  on  the  15th  of 
October,  1S26,  in  the  state  prison,  at  Windsor."  The 
story  altogether  reminds  one  irresistibly  of  the  familiar 
tale  of  the  three  black  crows. 

The  result  was  a  sort  of  a  victory  for  the  masons,  and 
of  course  they  did  not  fail  to  celebrate  it ;  exultation  was 
expressed  upon  everj'  hand  and  sneering  allusions  to  the 
"Jo  Burnham  farce"  were  heard  constantly.  Finally 
Dr.  David  Palmer  wrote  for  the  Woodstock  Courier,  then 
edited  by  B.  F.  Kendall,  the  prospectus  of  a  book  on  the 
subject,  to  be  published  at  the  oflice  of  the  paper.  The 
announcement  was  intended  merely  as  a  sarcastic  squib, 
but  it  was  taken  literally  and  people  began  to  send  in 
orders  for  the  book,  whereupon  Mr.  Kendall  carried  out 
the  jest  by  writing  and  publishing  this  "Tragedy," 
which  is  worthy  of  a  place  in  the  "Curiosities  of  Litera- 
ture. Benjamin  Tuel,  a  jeweler's  apprentice,  made  five 
engravings  for  it  which  are  well  calculated  to  keep  in 
countenance  Kendall's  words.  The  characters  were  all 
taken  from  life  aad  the  book  was  given  point  by  the  fact 
that  several  of  them — middle-aged,  sober  citizens,  and 
one  a  minister— had  traveled  about  the  state  giving 
dramatic  representations  of  masonic  ceremonies.  More- 
over, a  strolling  theatrical  company  happening  along  at 
Woodstock  soon  after  the  publication  appeared,  "Jo 
Bumham"  was  put  on  the  boards  and  drew  crowded 
houses  for  two  weeks.

Being  a  history  of  tergiversation  in  politics  for  twenty- 
five  years,  culminating  \n  a  bitter  personal  quarrel. 

Mr.  Kendall  was  a  native  of  South  Woodstock,  where 
he  was  born  in  October,  1799  ;  he  was  for  some  time  a 
merchant  at  Woodstock,  then  the  editor  and  publisher  of 
one  or  two  newspapers  there. 

In  1S36  he  moved  to  Richmond,  Va..  where  for  eight 
years  he  was  book-keeper  in  the  office  of  the  then  famous

Indiana  for  nearly  half  a  century,  and  many  of  the  best

struggle  appears  to  have  been  a  severe  one,  having  a

all  obstacles.  She  moved  from  Vermont  to  Indiana  in

John  Stebbins  Lee,  son  of  Eli  and  Rebekah  S.  Lee.  was 
born  in  Vernon,  Vt.,  September  23,  1S20.  Was  educated 
till  16  years  of  age  in  the  common  scliool,  where  he  com- 
menced the  study  of  the  Latin  language.  Then  he  at- 
tended the  High  School  at  Brattleboro,  Vt.,  the  Academy 
at  Deerfield.  Mass.,  Shelburne  Falls  Academy  and  West 
Brattleboro  Academy,  where  he  completed  his  prepara- 
tion for  College  in  June,  1841.  and  immediately  entered 
Amherst  College,  from  which  be  was  graduated  in 
August,  1845,  among  the  first  third  of  his  class  of  30.  He 
commenced  teaching  at  Swansey,  N.  H.,  the  same  month, 
taking  charge  of  Mount  Caesar  Seminary,  of  which  he  had 
charge  for  one  year. 

In  July,  1S46,  he  commenced  his  Theological  studies 
with  Rev.  Dr.  Hosca  Bullou,  2d.,  afterwards  first  Presi- 
dent of  Tuft's  College,  Medford,  Mass. 

In  April,  1847,  he  removed  to  West  Brattleboro  and 
took  charge  of  Melrose  Seminary,  where  he  remained 
nearly  two  years.  The  Seminary  was  largely  patronized 
under  his  charge. 

In  February,  1849,  Mr.  Lee  removed  to  Lebanon,  N.  H., 
and  took  charge  of  the  Universalist  society  there.  He 
resigned  his  charge  in  February,  1851,  and  removed  to 
Montp"lier,  Vt.,  where  he  assisted  Rev.  Dr.  Eli  Ballou 
in  editing  the  C/n7'.T//(Zw  Repository,  and  preached  there 
and  in  the  surrounding  towns. 

In  March,  1S59,  he  accepted  an  invitation  to  take  charge 
of  the  "Green  Mountain  Liberal  Institute"  in  South 
Woodstock,  Vt.,  where  he  remained  for  five  years.  He 
also  preached  in  South  Woodstock.  Bridgewater  and 
Woodstock,  thus  performing  the  labor  of  two  men  for 
most  of  the  time.  W^earied  out  by  his  labors,  in  1864,  he 
removed  to  Woodstock  and  took  charge  of  the  Dniver- 
salistsociety  for  two  years.  He  also  performed  the  duty 
of  Town  Superintendent  of  schools. 

In  April,  1S65,  he  resigned  his  charge  at  Woodstock, 
and  accepted  an  invitation  as  Professor  of  Latin  and 
Greek  languages  in  St.  Lawrence  University,  a  new  col- 
lege established  in  Canton,  N.  Y.  He  also  performed 
the  dutiesofPrincipal  of  the  Colleeiate  Department  un- 
til July,  1S6S,  when  exhausted  by  his  severe  and  unre- 
mitting labors  he  took  a  trip  to  Europe  and  Palestine. 
His  journey  was  rapid,  but  he  gleaned  rich  fruits  from 
it,  by  reason  of  the  extensive  preparation  which  he  had 
previously  made  in  the  way  of  reading,  especially  in 
history  and  the  classics.  He  lectured  extensively  on  his 
travels  in  Northern  New  York  and  \'erniont,  among  his 
old  friends,  and  at  their  request  he  collected  together  the 
fruits  of  his  tour,  and  published  them  in  a  volume,  as 
noted  above.  The  volume  was  issued  in  January,  1871, 
and  in  two  months  a  second  edition  was  called  for,  and 
large  numbers  of  the  work  have  been  sold. 

In  April.  1S69,  on  his  return  Mr.  Lee  took  the  chair  of 
Professor  of  Ecclesiastical  Histon.- and  Biblical  Arche- 
ology, in  the  Theological  department  of  St  Lawrence 
University,  which  he  has  held  ever  since.  His  tour  in 
the  East  was  a  special  preparation  for  this  position.

The  Grand  Lodge  of  Vermont  was  formed.  October 
14,  1794,  at  a  Convention  called  for  that  purpose.  The 
First  Chapter  of  Royal  Arch  Masons  in  America  was 
organized  in  1797,  and  the  Knights  Templar  the  same 
year  at  Philadelphia.  The  Grand  Royal  Arch  Chapter 
for  the  six  Northern  States,  was  formed  at  Hartford, 
Coim.,  in  January,  1798;  the  first  Septennial  meeting  was 
held  at  Middletown,  Conn., Januar>'9,  1S06.  when  the  dis- 
pute between  the  Grand  Chapters  of  New  York  and  Ver- 
mont, relating  to  the  independence  of  the  latter  and  her 
right  of  admission,  was  settled  by  the  admission  of  the 
Grand  Chapter  of  V'ermont  into  partnership  with  the  Su- 
preme Grand  Chapter. 

There  are  at  present  over  100  Lodges  in  the  State  of 
Vermont,  with  a  membership  of  about  nine  thousand. 

Vermont  appears  to  be  a  favorite  ground  for  all  the 
isms  that  spring  up  ;  Vermont  was  at  the  front  in  anti- 
masonry,  having  cast  her  electoral  vote  in  1852,  solitary 
and  alone  for  William  Wirt,  an  anti-masonic  candidate 
lor  President  of  the  United  States  ;  she  was  foremost  for 
abolitionism,  and  is  at  the  front  in  favor  of  political  sec- 
tionalism; Mormonism  also  had  its  root  in  Vermont,  Jo. 
Smith  and  Brigham  Young,  both  being  natives  of  the 
State.

Mr.  Milligan  was  of  the  Old  School  Presbyterian 
faith,  and  was  settled  over  a  church  of  that  order  in 
R^e^te.  Vt.,  1817-1839;  when  he  left  on  account  of  a 
division  in  the  church  from  its  being  iufccled  with  the 
ridiculous  notion  that  a  church  member  could  Dot  ex- 
ercise the  elective  franchise,  without  being  subject  to  the 
discipline  of  the  church.

Known  as  the  "Shay's  Rebellion."  Many  of  the  first 
settlers  in  various  sections  of  Vennont  were  refugees 
from  the  Shays  party,  aud  the  authorities  and  people  of 
Vermont  being  favorable  to  immigration,  tlie  Shays  men 
who  came  within  her  borders  with  a  view  of  settlement, 
were  never  seriously  disturbed.  Mr.  Minot  says  :  "Those 
decisive  measures  bv  the  authorities  of  New  York, 
obliged  the  malcontents  to  flee  out  of  the  State  of  New 
York,  aud  to  betake  themselves  to  their  last  resort  in 
Vermont."  Governor  Chittenden,  however,  in  obedience 
to  a  bare  majority  of  the  General  Assembly,  but  in  op- 
position to  his  own  views,  issued  a  proclamation  on  the 
subject  as  a  matter  of  courtesy  perhaps  to  the 
Governor  of  Massachusetts ;  for  Vermont  being  an  in- 
dependent State,  and  not  a  member  of  tlie  Confederation 
of  States,  was  not  bound  by  the  articles  of  Confederation 
"binding  themselves  to  assist  each  other  against  all 
force  opposed  to,  or  attacks  upon  them,  or  any  of  them," 
etc.  And  there  was  no  extradition  treaty  existing  be-

Miss  Moore's  pamphlet  of  6o  pages  is  ver>'  interesting 
reading  ;  it  treats  of  (Beecher's)  Plymoutli  church,  of 
which  she  is  or  was  a  member  in  regular  standing,  as 
certified  by  Thomas  G.  Shearman.  October  3.  187.^ .  She  is 
well  connected,  being  a  niece  of  Mr.  Stone,  editor  of  the 
New  York  "Journal  of  Commerce."  She  appears  to 
have  been  a  firm  friend  to  Beecher  so  long  as  slie  could 
stand  it.  In  short  the  pamphlet  is  rich;  full  of  typo- 
graphical errors,  to  be  sure  ;  which  in  the  copy  I  have. 
from  the  library  of  the  late  Chauncey  K.  Williams,  of 
Rutland,  have  fieen  corrected  by  a  careful  hand.  'I'his 
pamphlet  could  be  further  illustrated,  but  as  it  only  came 
to  my  hand  at  the  last  moment  I  drop  thes\ibject.

This  pamphlet  was  printed  in  Woodstock,  in  1S53.  by 
Nahnni  Haskell,  and  is  curious  as  being  a  record  nf  some 
of  the  early  ■■spiritual"  doings  in  Vermont.  It  is  filled 
chielly  with  'communications,"  the  first  being  from  a 
no  less  distincuished  spirit  than  Washington.  Dr. 
Nathaniel  Randall,  of  Woodstock,  and  his  wife  Marend.-i 
were  the  movers  in  the  business,  the  medium  being  a 
young  man  brou^'ht  from  New  Hampshire,  and  taken 
to  their  house  where  the  ■communications"  were  re- 
ceived. Mrs.  Randall  doing  the  writing  and  the  Doctor 
paying  the  printer's  bills.  There  was  naturally  some 
popular  feeling  against  sjch  operations  at  the  time  and 
some  hints  of  violence,  which  being  magnified  by  the 
actors,  the  "medium"  was  carried  away  in  the  night  and 
this  pamphlet  published  in  rather  secret  fashion.

Judj^e  Niles,  statesman,  clergj'inan,  inventor,  and 
politician,  was  bom  in  South  Kingston,  R.  I.  April  3, 
1741 ;  and  died  at  West  Fairlee,  Vt.  October  31,  1828.  He 
was  one  of  the  first  settlers  of  West  Fairlee, 'having  loca- 
ted there  in  1779,  He  held  many  State  offices,  and  was  a 
member  of  Congress  from  Vermont,  I7qi-,s.  He  pub- 
lished many  essays,  addresses,  and  poems  before  coming 
to  Vermont.  Before  coming  to  Fairlee,  Judge  Niles  ^vas 
engaged  in  the  manufacture  of  wool  cards,  among  other 
.trticles.  in  Connecticut,  and  the  reason  of  his  moving  to 
\'crmont  was  that  he  purchased  for  two  dozen  wool  cards 
a  large  tract  of  land  in  the  new  town  of  Fairlee  :  after 
making  ail  examination  of  his  land,  he  led  a  colony  of 
his  employees  and  others,  and  commenced  a  settlement 
in  1779.  We  have  this  incident  from  Rev.  A.  W.  Wild 
of  Peacham,  whose  grandfather  was  an  associate 
and  employee  of  Judg^  Niles.  and  came  to  Fairlee  as  one 
of  the  Judge's  party.

Dr.  Parmi>  assisted  C.  A.  Harris,  M.  U.,  in  editing  the 
American  Journal  of  Dental  Science;  "  he  also  deliv- 
ered in  rhyme  one  or  more  addresses  in  New  York,  be- 
lore  Dental  Societies. 

Dr.  Parmly  was  born  in  Braintree,  Vt.,  March  13,  1797 ; 
(lied  in  New  York  city,  December,  1874.  He  learned 
dentistry  of  his  elder  brother,  completing  his  education 
as  a  surgeon-dentist  in  Paris.  He  then  proceeded  to 
London,  and  hung  out  his  professional  sign,  where  he 
practiced  for  several  years  witb  great  success,  especially 
among  the  nobility  ;  he  sold  his  business  in  London,  and 
came  to  New  York,  where  he  invested  a  considerable 
part  of  his  means  in  real  estate. 

Mr.  Parmly  continued  to  reside  in  New  York  until  his 
death,  in  the  practice  of  his  profession,  and  dealing  in 
real  estate,  always  buying,  but  seldom  selling.  Heal- 
so  invested  largely  in  real  estate  in  Ohio,  owning  at  one 
time  a  large  part  of  the  city  of  Painsviile  in  that  State. 
At  his  death  he  lelt  an  estate  valued  at  five  million  dol- 
lars or  more,  to  be  divided  between  three  heirs,  a  son 
and  two  daughters  ;  Hon.  Frederick  Billings,  of  Wood- 
stock, Vt.,  married  one  of  the  daughters. 

Dr.  Parmly  was  in  his  mature  years  punctilious  in 
money  matters;  if  any  person  owed  him  a  cent,  he 
wanted  it;  if  he  owed  any  person  anything  he  wanted  to 
pay  it.  An  instance  :  Some  years  previous  to  the  Doc- 
tor's death,  Dr.  O.  P.  Forbush,  of  Montpelier,  passed  a 
portion  of  his  time  yearly  in  the  office  of  Dr.  Parmly,  and 
on  one  occasion  Dr.  Forbush  was  requested  to  go  down 
town  and  collect  a  bank  check.  The  Doctor  replied  that 
he  did  not  know  any  one  in  the  bank.  Just  then  Dr. 
Parmly  appeared  and  said  he  was  going  down  town,  and 
would  identify  Dr.  Forbush.  and  they  stepped  into  a 
Broadway  stage.  Directly  Dr.  Parmly  examined  his 
pockets,  found  he  had  no  money,  and  said  "  Forbush  you 
must  pay  my  fare."  The  next  day  the  son  of  Dr.  Parmly 
handed  Dr.  Forbush  a  small  envelope,  saying,  "  Father 
leflthis  foryou."  I'pon  opening  it  Dr.  Forbush  found  si.\ 
cents,  the  stage  fare  of  the  day  before.  Dr.  Forbush  said 
"  it  is  nothing,"  and  declined  to  receive  it ;  the  son  said 
■■  Father  will  feel  hurt  if  you  don't  take  it,"  and  the  Doc- 
tor finally  put  it  into  his  pocket. 

Dr.  Parmly  was  a  near  relative  of  Dr.  Eleazar  Wheel- 
uek.  founder  of  Dartmouth  College,  and  his  name  Eleazar 
was  for  the  Rev.  Doctor.  Another  of  the  family  bore  the 
name  of  Wheelock  Parmly.  There  was  also  a  Randolph 
Parmly.  uncle  to  Dr.  Eleazar  ;  said  to  have  been  the  first 
male  child  born  in  the  town  of  Randolph,  hence  his 
name.  I  learn  from  Judge  Barrett,  of  Woodstock,  that 
Dr.  Parmly  always  manifested  great  respect  and  vener- 
ation for  the  Wheelock  family. and  a  few  years  before  his 
death,  upon  visiting  the  cemetery  at  Hanover,  N.  il  . 
where  the  remains  of  so  many  of  that  honored  name  rest, 
and  finding  that  part  of  the  cemetery  in  a  somewhat  di- 
lapidated and  uncared  for  condition,  he  caused  to  be 
put  in  complete  order  the  grounds,  monuments  and 
stones  which  mark  the  resting  places  of  the  Wheelock 
family. 

I  am  indebted  to  Dr.  I-'orbush.  of  Montpelier.  for  many 
of  the  incidents  in  Mr.  V^armly's  life. 

The  following  sketch  of  Dr.  Parmly  was  furnished  by 
his  son,  a  resident  of  New  York  cit\'.     It  does    not   cover

the  entire  period  of  the  doctor's  life  as  clearly   as  desir- 
able, but  in  connection  \\  ilh  the  above  is  valuable  : 

At  an  early  age  my  father  taught  a  district  school  in 
Vermout  with  marked  success.  The  Trustees  cautioned 
him  not  to  mention  his  age,  as  many  of  his  pupils  were 
older  than  he.  This  was  his  tirsi  deuarture  from  farm 
labor.  He  then  went  to  Montreal,  anci  entered  the  print- 
ing office  of  a  friend  ol  his  father,  Mai.  Levi  Mower,  but 
was  not  indentured,  and  the  friendly  relations  of  tlie 
Mower  family  always  kept  up.  Wlien  learning  the  print- 
er's art,  he  aspired  to  editorship,  and  soon  set  up  hi> 
own  articles.  At  this  lime  his  okicr  brother,  I^evi  Speav 
Farmly,  had  met  with  success  in  dentistry,  having  stud- 
ied under  the  lending  denti:.t.  of  Boston,  and  he  sought 
his  brother  in  Montreal,  and  gave  hitn  such  instruction 
Rs  he  could.  Kleazav  practiced  in  the  Southern  cities, 
chiefly  in  Lexington.  Ky.  Hcing  dissatisfied  with  his 
knowledge  of  his  profession,  he  went  to  Paris  ami  put 
himself  under  the  tuition  of  Pr.  Maury,  dentist  to  the 
King  of  France.  From  there  he  went  to  London,  Eng.. 
where  he  met  with  most  flattering  success,  and  would 
probably  have  remained  there  b"t  for  his  strong  attach- 
ment to  home  and  kindred. 

M\'  father  returned  to  New  \'ork  in  18^4  with  but  little 
means,  as  all  he  Imd  saved  up  to  that  time  and  all  sav- 
ings for  several  years  after  were  devoted  to  betlering 
the  prospects  of  his  family  through  education  and  estab- 
lishing tnem  in  business.  The  Ohio  investments  were 
inconsiderable  and  unprofitable.  He  married  in  1S27.  af- 
ter which  date  he  maae  huestments  in  real  estite.  His 
extreme  carefulness  and  promptness  in  meeting  obliga- 
tions gave  him  a  reputation  of  having  much  greater 
means  than  he  possessed.  At  his  decease  the  estate 
was  estimated  at  {2,000,000,  but  since  then  there  has  been 
a  considerable  shrinkage  in  its  value.  It  was  dividetl 
into  four  equal  shares,  and  these  shares  distiibuted.  at- 
cording  to  the  provisions  of  the  will,  among  the  heirs, 
who  are  a  son,  two  daughters,  and  three  children  of  a 
deceased  daughter.  Ehkick  Parmlv.

Mr.  Parmlv  was  also  a  dentist  of  high  ■epute,  being  an 
elder  brother  of  Elcazar  Parmly  above.  Subsequently 
lie  was  some  time  partner  of  Elea;;ar  in  New  \'ork.  At 
an  early  age  he  was  bound  out  to  a  man  in  Canada,  wheie 
he  went  to  live  with  an  ainit,  for  seven  >eavs  to  l«arn  the 
cooper's  trade.  Soon  after  bis  apprenticbsihip  com- 
menced, th»»  late  Dr.  T.  C.  Taplin,  for  many  years  a  prom- 
inent dentist  and  citizen  of  Montpelicr,  taught  school  in 
the  Canadian  town  where  \ovmg  Parmly  livt-d.  Noticing 
that  he  was  a  bright  and  promising  boy,  he  persuaded 
Ills  master  to  allow  him  to  attend  school.  At  the  close 
of  the  school,  young  Parmly  expressed  great  repugnance 
to  going  back  to  the  cooper's  tradt*,  nut  saiu  he  was 
bound  to  his  master,  and  did  not  know  how  to  get  out  of 
it.  Mr.  Taplin  advised  him  to  run  away;  but  Parmly 
said  he  had  no  money  or  clothing,  whereupon  Mr.  Tap- 
lin supplied  him  an  outfit  and  a  little  money, and  told  hnn 
to  get  into  Vermont  as  quickly  as  possible,  and  he  would 
be  safe. 

Young  Parmly  followed  instructions,  and  finally  worked 
his  way  to  New  Orleans,  where  an  uncle,  who  was  a 
uhysiciao.  resided.  The  uncle  took  an  interest  in  the 
lad,  and  gave  him  protection  and  aid.  He  subsequentU 
moved  to  New  Orleans,  where  I  am  informed  he  died.

Peck.  Miss  Ellen  0. 

Daughter  of  Hon.  Addison  Peck  of  East  Montpelier. 
Vt.,  of  which  town  she  is  a  native.  Miss  Peck  commenced 
writing  for  magazines  and  newspapers  at  an  early  period 
in  life,  her  first  article,  a  poem,  being  sent  to  a  Boston  pa- 
per by  her  brother,  without  the  knowledge  of  hii  sister, 
where  it  was  printed  ;  she  was  then  fifteen  years  of  age. 
Miss  Peck  has  since  become  an  industrious  contributor  to 
various  periodicals,  in  prose  and  verse,  her  name  appear- 
ing as  a  regular  contributor  to  "The  Cottage  Hearth," 
Boston,  "New  England  Journal  of  Education."  and  Mrs. 
Blade's  magazine.  "Good  Times."  Among  her  prose  arti- 
cles may  be  mentioned  "The  Early  Home  of  Governor

notably  her  poetical  address  read  before  the  Alumni  of 
the   Vermont    Methodist  Seminary.   1876.     Miss   Peck    is 


much  interested  iu  Education,  teacliing  being  uuc  of  her

The  Peck  families  In  Vermont  are  largely  represented 
in  the  above  work.  It  appears  that  a  large  proportiou  of 
them  arts  descended  from  Joseph,  brother  01  Rev.  Robert 
Peck,  the  minister  who  immigrated  from  Hingham,  Mng- 
tand,  iu  1638.  Information  in  relation  to  the  Pecks  in 
Washington  county  is  not  as  full  as  it  should  have  been, 
probably  on  account  of  a  lack  of  interest  and  a  general 
indifference  in  relation  to  the  subject. 

We  give  some  additional  facts  in  relation  to  Kev.  Rob- 
ert Peck,  the  "Minister  of  Hinaham."  .\s  stated  in  the 
above  work,  he  was  Rector  at  Hingham,  England,  1605- 
163S,  but  his  sympathies  being  with  the  Puritans  and  op- 
posed to  the  Church  of  Englan'i,  he  was  prosecuted  bj 
Bishop  Wren,  which  led  him  and  a  large  part  of  his 
church  to  emigrate  to  America.  I'nder  his  lead  a  parly 
of  133  men,  women  and  children  embarked  in  the  sliip, 
"Diligent,"  of  Ipswich,  Captain  John  Martin,  which  left 
Gravesend,  April  26,  and  arrived  at  Boston,  Mass.,  Aug- 
ust 10,  1638.  The  following  are  a  few  of  the  names  com- 
posing this  party  :  Robert  Peck,  wife,  two  children  and 
two  servants;  Joseph  Peck  (brother  of  Robert,  and  an- 
cestor of  most  of  the  Pecks  in  Vermont),  wife,  three  sons, 
one  daughter.  t\\o  men  and  three  maidservants;  Edward 
Oilman,  wife,  three  sons,  two  daughters  and  three  ser- 
vants. Edward  Oilman  was  the  ancestor  of  all  the  Gil- 
mans  in  the  I'nited  States,  so  far  as  known;  he  took  the 
freeman's  oath,  together  with  Ralph  Wheelock,  ancestor 
of  Rev.  Eleazar  Wheelock.  Rev.  Robert  Peck,  Joseph 
Peck,  and  many  others,  at  Ipswich,  Mass.,  March  13, 1639. 
To  be  admitted  as  a  freeman  at  that  time  the  person  was 
required  to  be  a  respectable  member  of  some  Congrega- 
tional (Calvinistic)  church,  and  to  subscribe  to  the  oath 
before  the  General  Court,  or  the  Quarterly  Court  of  the 
county.  Among  other  names,  heads  of  families,  who 
came  in  theship  ■'Diligent"  were  Foulsham.  Chamber- 
lain, Gates,  Knights.  Cooper,  Gushing,  Beale,  a  shoe- 
maker. Sayer.  James.  Buck,  Sutton,  Lincoln,  Smith.  Allen. 
Hawk,  etc.  A  complete  list  may  be  found  in  "Drake's 
Founders  of  New  Rngland,"  pp.  80.  Si. 

This  colony  appears  to  have  been  very  well  off,  as 
many  of  the  families  brought  with  them  from  one  to  four 
servants  each.  They  all  settled  at  Hingham.  Mass.  Here 
also  had  pre\  ioiisly  settled,  among  others,  four  families 
of  Hoharts.  of  whom  was  Rev.  Peter,  the  l"irst  minister  in 
the  town.  Rev.  Father  James  Hobart,  late  of  Berlin,  Vt.. 
was  of  this  stock.  The  iirst  meeting-house  was  erected 
in  1635,  and  at  a  town  meeting,  March,  1644-5,  Edward 
Oilman  and  four  other  persons  were  empowered  to  build 
at  the  north  end  of  the  meeting-house  one  gallery  for 
themselves,  to  remain  their  property,  etc. 

Rev.  Robert  Peck  was  ordained  a  "Teacher"  in  the 
church  soon  after  his  arrival,  but  it  does  not  appear  that 
he  ever  had  a  settlement,  as  he  returned  to  his  old  Par- 
ish in  England  in  1641,  the  persecutions  there  having 
mainly  ceased. 

The  following  is  a  sketch  of  Rev.  Mr.  Peck  by  Rev. 
John  Watson,  who  was  the  Rector  of  t!ie  same  parish  in 
England,  1683-1727  :  "  He  was  a  man  of  very  violent, 
schismatical  spirit.  He  pulled  down  the  rails,  and  lev- 
eled the  altar  and  the  whole  chancel  afoot  below  the 
I  hurch,  as  it  remains  to  this  day;  but  heing  prosecuted

six  years  of  age  he  removed  with  his  father  and  faniily 
to  Burlington,  Vt..  and  he  continued  a  resident  of  the 
State  until  about  1868.  He  graduated  from  the  Univer- 
sity of  Vermont  in  1847.  Mr.  Perr>'  was  a  preacher  in  the 
broadest  sense  ;  he  gave  much  attention  to  the  Natural 
Historv  of  Vermont,  and  became  an  able  and  accomplish- 
ed geologist  of  the  School  of  Marcon,  Barrande.  Agassiz  ; 
ana  of  Dr.  Emmons,  of  New  York,  in  his  later  views  of 
the  geological  formations  in  western  Vermont.  Professor 
Perry  published  several  articles  in  relation  to  geology,  es- 
pecially upnnthemuch  debated  question  in  the  past  rela- 
ti^■etothe  geological  formations  in  western  Massachu- 
setts and  Vermont,  and  eastern  New  York  ;  his  views 
being  in  accordance  with  those  of  the  distinguished  gen- 
tleman mentioned,  and  quite  at  variance  with  those  of 
most,  if  not  all,  of  our  "State  Geologists  for  \'erniont." 
The  theory  of  Professor  Perry  and  those  who  coincided 
with  him,  and  which  Dr.  Enunons  formulated  as  a  syslem 
under  the  name  "  Taconic,"  is  now  generally  accepted 
by  the  most  eminent  geologists  not  only  in  this  country 
but  in  Europe.  For  a  sketch  of  the  life  and  works  of

"Biographical  Dictionary*' calls  him  Judge  Phelps,  and 
says  that  "he  drafted  the  Constitution  of  Vermont." 
which,  interpreted,  probably  means  that  as  a  member  of 
the  Constitutional  Convention  in  1814  he  may  have  drafted 
a  proposed  amendment.  He  died  at  Patapsco  in  1848,  ac- 
cording to  Drake,  and  in  1849  according  to  Allibone,  Mrs. 
Hale,  and  B.  H.  Hall.

Brattleboro,  Vt.,  Augrust  30th,  1880. 
Mr.  M.  D.  Gilman, 

Dear  Sir  :  In  reply  to  your  favor  of  the  28th  inst.,  I 
send  one  of  ray  works — The  Cradle  of  Rebellions,  a  trans- 
lation from  the  French. 

I  have  also  compiled  a  work,  published  in  Brattleboro 
in  1876.  called  Good  Behavior,  designed  for  improving 
the  manners  of  our  public  schools,  and  rendering  them 
uniform  throughout  the  Union.  It  was  issued  from  the 
house  of  Messrs.  Cheney  &  Clapp. 


An  address  delivered  by  me  before  the  Vennont  Colon- 
ization Society,  at  Montpelier,  in  1867,  (I  think)  was  pub- 
lished in  Burlington,  and  may  possibly  be  in  the  Collec- 
tions of  the  Historical  Society. 

A  report  of  my  military  services  in  the  war  of  the  rebel- 
lion was  rendered  by  me  some  years  ago,  on  a  call  for  it, 
from  the  Adjutant  General's  office,  U.  S.  Army.  Whether 
yet  printed  or  not,  I  do  not  know. 

I  have  a  map  of  Newport  News,  made  by  a  young  man 
under  my  command  at  that  point,  which  is  of  sufficient 
interest  to  be  framed  and  preserved  somewhere.  If  you 
think  that  the  Society  rooms  area  proper  place  for  it,  I 
will  send  it  to  you.     [The  map  was  received] . 

With  regard  to  my  descent,  I  am  the  son  of  John,  who 
was  the  son  of  Timothy,  who  was  the  son  of  Charles 
Phelps,  of  Marlboro,  who,  as  his  epitaph  reads  (which  I 
have  lately  seen)  was  an  eminent  jurist  and  theologian, 
born  in  1717  and  died  in  1789.  [See  B.  H.  Hall's  "Eastern 
Vermont."] 

With  respect  to  myself— since  lea\'ing  the  public  service 
in  which  I  assumed  a  position  that  was  not  sustained  by 
Vermont,  I  have  devoted  ray  entire  time  to  African  Colon- 
ization, to  the  systematic  inculcation  of  good  behavior  in 
public  schools,  and  furthering  the  cause  of  Anti-raasonry. 
My  railitary  services  may  be  found  in  the  report  alluded 
to,  and  in  "Cullum's  Dictionary  of  West  Point  Grad- 
uates." 

Very  respectfully  yours, 

J.  W.  Phelps. 

Gen.  Phelps  was  found  dead  in  bed  at  his  home  in  Guil- 
ford, Vt.,  Monday  morning,  Feb.  2,  18S5,  by  one  of  his 
neighbors.  He  was  alone  in  the  house,  his  wife  and  child 
being  on  a  Wsit  to  her  parents  in  Northfield,  aod  the 
house-keeper  having  gone  to  her  home  in  the  neighbor- 
hood for  the  night.  He  was  last  seen  shoveling  snow 
near  his  house  Sunday  afternoon,  and  in  the  evening  a 
light  was  seen  there  until  9  o'clock.  He  evidently  retired 
as  usual  and  died  without  a  struggle  Gen.  Phelps  was 
bom  in  Guilford  in  May,  1813.  He  graduated  1836  at 
West  Point,  and  was  brevetted  a  second  lieutenant.  He 
served  in  the  Florida  and  Mexican  wars  and  was  pro- 
moted to  a  captaincy  for  his  gallantry  in  the  latter,  a 
position  which  he  declined.  He  entered  the  war  of  the 
rebellion  in  1S61  as  colonel  of  the  first  Vermont  Volun- 
teers, and  was  soon  after  brevetted  brigadier  general. 
Later  he  was  with  Gen.  Butler  in  the  department  of  the 
Gulf,  and  while  stationed  at  Ship  Island,  he  issued  his 
famous  emancipation  proclamation  to  the  negroes  lor 
which  he  was  proclaimed  an  outlaw  by  the  confederate 
government.  His  proclamation  was  also  unfavorably 
received  by  the  war  department.  An  effort,  on  his  part,  to 
organize  and  arm  some  negro  regiments  at  New  Orleans, 
in  June,  1862,  led  to  his  resignation,  afler  which  he 
resided  in  Brattleboro  until  1884,  when  he  went  to  Guil- 
ford. He  was  the  anti-Masonic  candidate  for  president  in 
1880,  with  Pomeroy  as  vice-president.  He  was  a  contrib* 
utor  to  the  Century  and  other  magazines  and  newspapers, 
and  was  for  some  time  president  of  a  teachers's  asso- 
ciation in  Vermont.  He  was  first  married  in  1SS3  to  Mrs. 
Davis  of  Northfield,  who,  together  with  a  9-months  old 
child,  survived  him.  He  was  a  member  of  the  Episcopal 
church  of  Guilford. 

No  more  truthful  estimate  could  be  given  of  Gen. 
Phelps's  character,  than  -that  contributed  by  General 
Rush  C.  Hawkins  to  the  New  York  Times,  on  hearing*  of 
his  death.    It  was  as  follows  : 

"General  John  W.  Phelps  of  Vermont,  whose  death 
was  announced  in  your  paper  this  morning,  was  one  of 
the  most  notable  officers  01  the  army.  He  was  an  accom- 
plished soldier  of  the  highest  and  best  type,  a  patriotic 
citizen  with  an  unblemished  reputation,  a  scholar  well 
versed  In  mathematics,  science,  history,  theology, 
several  of  the  dead  and  four  or  five  of  the  living  lan- 
guages. 

As  a  soldier,  he  was  all  that  the  best  authorities  de- 
mand, and  even  more,  for  it  might  be  said  of  him.  that 
he  possessed  an  inner  sense  of  duty  which  no  written 
formula  could  prescribe.  It  was  his  faithful  care,  intelli- 
gence, and  attention  to  his  whole  duty,  as  commanding 
officer,  and  above  all  his  example  of  indefatigable  indus- 
try, which  made  his  comraand  one  of  the  best  dis- 
ciplined, best  drilled  and  most  efficent  in  the  whole 
army. 

He  was  not  much  of  a  believer  in  the  extra-unoftlcial- 
off-duty-dress-parade  business,  which  to  many  officers 
who  were/>i3Ji'7<»\j,  seemed  to  be  of  so  very  much  impor- 
tance. Neither  was  he  a  martinet ;  he  had  the  rare  good 
sense  to  accept  the  volunteer  army  for  exactly  what  it 
was.  He  weighed  its  defects,  and  measured  its  virtues. 
and  governed  the  performance  of  his  duties  accordingly. 
He  knew  he  could  trust  its  patriotic  sense  of  duty  and 
intelligence  to  imitate  a  good  example,  and  its  willing- 
ness to  follow  where  it  could   not  be  driven  ;   and  there

never  was  a  commanding  officer  more  implicity  obeyed, 
or  more  confidiugly  trusted. 

It  was  my  good  iortiiiie  to  have  been  ordered  to  his 
command  at  Newport  News.  Vir^nia,  soon  after  the 
breaking  out  of  the  rebellion  in  iS6l.  When  I  reported 
to  him  with  my  regiment.  I  was  given  to  understand 
that  we  were  eiig.iged  in  a  most  serious  undertaking, 
involving  as  it  did  the  national  life,  atul  that  we  could 
hope  to  overcome  our  foes  only  by  taking  advantage  ol 
all  our  resources,  (  he  was  the  first  to  urge  the  organiza- 
tion of  negro  troops)  nud  moulding  our  raw  material 
into  a  well  disciplined  army  ;  that  the  accomplishment 
of  the  latter  was  the  immediate  work  at  hand  ;  and  work 
he  made  of  it.  such  as  many  of  us  had  never  dreamed  of 
before  ;  but  we  saw  the  necessity  for  labor,  and  the  good 
sense  involved  in  his  orders  and  criticisms,  and  all 
worked  with  a  will,  officers  and  men,  to  reward  the 
great  industry  of  a  commander  who  had  won  our  aflcc- 
tion,  admiration,  and  deep  respect. 

W  e  went  to  him  as  children  go  to  school,  and  left  him 
after  three  months'  tuition,  a  thoroughly  well  disciplined 
regiment,  of  whose  afler  record  he  was  justly  proud. 
To  that  kind  hearted,  quaint,  honest  old  man,  with  his 
perfect  sense  of  justice,  the  officers  and  men  of  my  regi- 
ment owe  a  debt  of  gratitude,  which  can  only  be  effaced 
from  their  memories,  when  the  last  survivor  of  that  coin- 
mand  shall  have  passed  away. 

This  little  statement,  inadequate  as  it  is,  is  the  tribute 
I  bring  to  the  grave  of  an  honored  friend  of  a  quarter  of 
a  century.  I  could  not  do  less,  I  wish  I  could  do  more. 
Take  him  all  in  all,  I  have  never  known  a  man  so  free 
from  the  hypocricies,  sins  and  vices  which  make 
humanity  so  despicable,  as  was  John  W.  Phelps.

I  have  made  n  hurried  look  through  the  "Globe"  after 
my  speeches  and  reports,  and  send  you  a  list  of  such  as  I 
came  upon,  I  took  no  minutes  of  a  speech  unless  it  oc- 
cupied a  column  or  more  in  the  Globe.  I  niaiie  hundreds 
of  little  speeches  in  the  current  debates  which  cannot  be 
dignified  by  the  name  of  speeches.  But  what  I  send  you 
makes  a  sufliciently  long  list,  I  happened  to  find  a  copy 
of  my  Credit  Mobilier  Report,  and  speech  on  the  Geneva 
Award,  which  I  send  you.    Yonrs  truly.    I..  P.  Poland,

sold  his  interest  in  the  paper,  and  began  with  Mr.  George 
Wilkes  "Porter's  Spirit  of  the  Times."  which  he  edited 
until  his  death.  He  was  connected  at  various  times  with 
the  "Farmer's  Herald."  "The  Enquirer,'^  "The  New 
Yorker,"  and  "  The  American  Turf  Register  and  Sport- 
ing Magazine."  Mr.  Porter  edited  Col.  Hawker's  "In-

published  in  "The  Spirit  of  the  Times."  1S58.  izino, 
pp.  402,  Mr.  Brinley,  the  biographer  of  Mr.  Porter,  was 
his  brother-in-law,  having  married  a  sister  of  .\!r. Porter. 
The  latter  was  never  married.  See  New  York  Historical 
Magazine,  September,  185S,  for  obituary;  also  Bartlett's

Mr.  Porter's  brother.  Dr.  T.  O.  Porter,  was  an  able 
teacher,  and  a  successful  writer;  about  1S44  he  com- 
menced, in  connection  with  N.  P.  Willis,  the  publication 
in  New  York  of  the  "Corsair,"  a  weekly  paper.  George 
Porter,  another  brother,  was  also  a  well-known  writer, 
and  was  connected  with  the  "Spirit  of  the  Times"  for 
several  years;  he  subsequently  held  a  position  on  the 
"New  Orleans  Picayune."  where  he  died  in  1851.  Frank, 
his  youngest  brother,  was  also  a  writer  for  the  "Spirit." 
and  succeeded  George  in  the  "Picayune;"  his  healtli 
failed,  and  a  trip  to  Europe  failed  to  restore  him,  and  he 
returned  to  New  Orleans  and  died.  The  sister,  Mrs. 
Brinley,  was  a  lady  of  superior  mind,  and  an  able  writer. 
William  T.  was  the  last  survivor  of  five  brothers,  known 
to  the  reading  public  ;  of  these  Benjamin  alone  left  chil- 
dren. Mr.W.  T.  Porter  was  a  free  liver,  and  his  excesses 
in  this  direction  probably  hastened  his  death.

PRINTING  IN  VERMONT. 

The  following  brief  outline  of  printing  in  Vermont 
may  prove  a  starting  point  for  some  one  to  prepare  au 
extended  and  particular  history  of  newspapers  maga- 
zines etc.  of  the  State,  together  with  biographical 
sketches  of  their  publishers  and  editors. 

We  give  the  following  extract  from  the  address  by  Hon 
E.  P.  Walton,  before  the  Vermont  Publisher's  Associa- 
tion at  Bennington,  in  August,    1877,  the  manuscript  of 
which  IS  in  the  archives  of  the  Vermont  Historical  Socie- 
ty : 

The  first  pnuting  press  in  Vermont  was  probably 
brought  by  Samuel  Gale,  who  was  married  in  Brattleboro 
m  1773.  a  surveyor  under  New  York  in  that  year  and 
appomtedClerkof  Cumberland  [now  Windham]  County 
Court  m  1774.  He  was  an  Englishman  by  birth,  well 
educated,  a  gentleman  in  manners,  and  a  Tory  in  poli- 
tics. As  Clerk  of  the  Court,  he  of  course  fought  on  the 
Court  side  in  the  Westminster  massacre  of  1775,  and  for 
that  he  was  arrested  and  imprisoned  l)y  the  Whigs,  and 
his  property  was  confiscated  by  Vermont.  In  fact  he 
was  so  long  in  prison  under  diflferent  authorities  that  he 
abandoned  the  country  on  bis  release  by  the  Continental 
Congress,  and  took  office  in  Canada,  and  subsequently  a 
pension  from  the  British  government.  The  evidence 
that  he  brought  the  first  printing  press  to  Vermont  is 
meagre,  yet  tolerably  s.atisfactory.  The  ■'writing  office  " 
so  runs  the  record,  "of  one /■d/c,"  at  Westminster,  was 
confiscated  to  the  use  of  the  State  by  the  Legislature  in 
1780.  The  name  of  Pale  does  not  appear  in  Thomas' 
'•History  of  Printing,"  neither  does  that  of  Samuel  Gale- 
he  not  being  a  printer  ;  but  it  is  obvious  that  the  P  in- 
stead of  a  G  is  a  natural  clencal  error.  There  is  ample 
evidence  that  Gale  was  at  Westminster  in  1774-s  as 
Clerk  of  the  Court;  that  he  was  a  man  of  leariiing 
ambitious  of  authorship,  at  Philadelphia  in  1772  and 
actually  an  author  subsequently  in  England  The  most 
reasonable  inference  is  that  Gale  brought  printing 
niaterials  with  him  to  Vermont,  with  the  intention  of 
of  using  them,  though  bv  reason  possibly  of  his  short 
residence  in  the  State,  and  a  lack  of  printers,  there  is  no 
evidence  that  these  materials  were  ever  used  by  him 
For  a  sketch  of  Samuel  Gale  see  B,  H.  Hall's  History  of 
Eastern  Vermont,  pp.  643-650. 

The  next  press  brought  for  the  use  of  Vermont  was  es- 
tablished at  Dresden,  near  Hanover.  N.  H.,  in  i-'78  by 
Timothy  Green  and  Judah  Paddock  Spooner.  In  both 
Ihomas'  "History  of  Printing,"  and  Zadock  Thomp- 
son's Vermont,  it  is  stated  that  they  set  up  their  press  at 
Westminster  iu  that  year;  but  Thomas  subsequently 
stated  that  they  first  went  to  Hanover,  printed  a  news- 
paper for  a  short  time,  and  afterwards  removed  to  West- 
minster, and  printed  the  first  newspaper  in  Vermont. 
June  II,  1778.  Dresden  and  Hanover,  now  one  town,  and 
several  other  New  Hampshire  towns,  were  annexed  to 
Vermont ;  and  in  October.  1778,  Dresden,  Hanover,  and 
nine  other  New  Hampshire  towns,  were  represented 
in  the  Vermont  Legislature,  and  on  the  second  day  of 
the  session  it  was  "Voted,  and  Resolved,  that  Judah  Pad- 
dock and  Alden  Spooner,  be.  and  are  hereby  appointed 
Printers  for  the  General  Assembly  of  this  State."  A 
proclamation  of  Gov.  Chittenden,  dated  June  3  1779  was 
"Printed  by  Judah  Paddock  and  Alden  Spooner,  Print- 
ers to  the  General  Assemblv  of  the  State  of  Vermont  " 
The  first  union  of  New  Hampshire  towns  with  Vermont 
was  dissolved  in  Febniary,  1779,  and  it  istherefore  proba- 
ble that  the  brothers  Spooner  removed  the  office  from 
Dresden  to  Westminster  in  that  year,  and  that  Timothy 
Green  had  taken  tli«  place  of  Alden  Spooner.  However 
that  may  be.  it  is  certain  that  the  finst  newspaper  within 
the  present  hmits  of  Vermont  was  issued  at  Westmins- 
ter, Febniary  12,  1781.  I  will  de.scribe  it  from  a  copy  in 
the  librarj'  of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society  :

ing  offices  In  Vermoul  have  siuce  'goue  to  pot!"  the 
type  to  the  smelter  and  refiner,  to  come  out  nucw.  bril- 
liant as  silver,  to  print  the  wisdom  that  is  more  precious 
than  gold  ;  aud  the  poor  printers,  I  would  gladly  hope 
with  Benjamin  Franklin,  to  "appear  once  more,  in  a 
new  and  more  elegant  edition,  revised  aud  corrected  by 
theauthor."  I  read  the  title  :  "Vol.  i.  Number  8.  The 
i'erpnont  Gazette,  or  Green  Afounlain  Posi-Boy.  Monday, 
April  2,  i7Si.  Pliant  as  Reeds,  where  Streams  of  Kree-

Westminster.  Printed  by  Judah  Paddock.  Spooncr  aud

[It  is  believed  that  the  press  used  by  Green  aud  Spooner, 
which  is  now  prcser\'eu  iu  the  rooms  of  the  Vermont 
Historical  Society  at  Montpelier,  was  the  first  printing 
press  brought  to  New  Kugland.  aud  the  first  press  used 
in  the  English  speaking  colonies  of  North  America, 
having  been  set  up  iu  1639,  in  tlie  house  of  Henry  Dnn- 
ster,  the  first  president  of  Harvard  College.  It  was  used 
by  Samuel  Greeu,  printer,  of  Cambridge.  Mass.,  some  of 
whose  descendants  were  printers  for  a  liundred  years  in 
Massachusetts  and  Conuecticut.  Timothy  Green,  printer 
of  the  Post  Boy,  was  one  of  his  descendants.  Hon.  H.  O. 
Houghton,  of  Cambridge.  Mass.,  in  his  vahiable  paper  ou 
'■  Karly  Printing  in  America,"  read  before  the  Vermont 
Historical  Society,  Oct.  25,  1S94,  says;  "  That  the  press 
nowhere  [in  Montpelier]  may  be  the  press  originally 
used  by  Samuel  Green  in  Cambridge,  and  therefore  one 
of  the  original  presses  sent  over  from  Hngland.  seems 
possible  and  perhaps  probable,  The  press,  so  far  as  I 
can  judge,  answers  pretty  accurately  to  the  description 
of  the  original  press  used  byDunster,  or  Daye.  That  it 
came  afterward  into  the  possession  of  Green,  is  beyond 
question.  It  is  stated  that  when  Green  ceased  to  do 
business  the  presses  reverted  to  the  college.  It  is  possi- 
ble that  they  were  then  of  very  little  value,  and  one  of 
them  might  easily  have  passed  from  the  college  to 
Timothy  Green,  3d.  a  descendant  of  Samuel  Green,  who 
established  himself  in  Norwich,  Conn.  That  <^rccn 
afterwards  formed  a  partnership  with  Judah  P.  and 
Alden  Spooner  of  Vermont,  is  also  a  matter  of  lecord. 
They  first  established  the  press  in  Dresden,  a  part  of 
Hanover,  then  incorporated  within  the  boundary  of  Ver- 
mont, and  afterwards  removed  it  to  Westminster.  From 
that  period  to  the  present  the  different  persons  who  have 
interested  themselves  in  the  matter  have  traced  the 
press  through  various  vicissitudes  until  it  has  reached 
its  haveu  of  rest  in  the  care  of  the  Historical  Society  of 
the  State  of  Vermont.  From  all  the  evidence  it  seems  to 
me  that  we  can  assume  that  there  is  a  ver>'  reasonable 
probability  that  it  is  one  of  the  two  identical  presses  ou 
which  printing  was  first  executed  in  this  country."] 

—  Westminster. 

Thompson's  History  of  Vermont  gives  February,  1781, 
as  the  date  when  the  publication  of  the  first  Vermont 
newspaper  began  at  Westminster.  This  date  has  been 
accepted  as  correct  and  number  eight  of  the  newspaper 
(which  was  The  I'eimont  Gazette,  or  Green  Mountain 
Pos^j^ov)  is  dated  April  2,  1781,  as  a  copy  iu  the  posses- 
sion of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society  shows.  This 
would  bring  the  date  of  the  first  issue  February  12,  17S1, 
if  it  was  a  weekly  publication.  But  a  "find"  of  old 
almanacs  made  by  Dr.  Conland,  representative  from 
Brattleboro.  shakes  modern  authority.  In  the  Vermont 
Almanack  of  1796,  published  at  Rutland  and  now  in  Dr. 
Conland's  possession,  an  article  on  i>rinting  has  the 
following  paragraph  :  "In  Vermont  the  first  piece  that 
was  printed  was  a  newspaper  at  Westminster,  by  Judah 
P.  Spooner  and  Timothy  Green,  entitled.  The  I'ermoHt 
Gazette  and  Green  Afountain  Post-Boy.  dated  Thursday, 
December  14.  1780."  Thoutrh  the  title  given  the  paper  ui 
this  article  is  slightly  wrong,  the  date  may  very  well  be 
the  proper  one.  The  article  appeared  when  Spooner 
was  printing  a  newspaper  at  Fairhaven,  and  the  14th  of 
December,  1780.  was  Thursday.  Perhaps  Spooner  Si. 
Green  published  a  tri-weckly,  that  is  a  paper  they  tried 
to  get  out  once  a  week. 

We  now  quote  from  the  official  Records  of  the  General 
Assembly  and  Governor  and  Council : 

March  16,  1780.  the  General  Assembly  "Resolved  that 
the  Governor  and  Council  be  and  are  hereby  requested 
to  obtain  a  printer  to  settle  within  this  state  lor  the  pur- 
pose of  printing  the  laws,  etc.,  as  soon  as  they  shall 
judge  it  necessary." 

June  12.  following,  the  Council  "Resolved  that  Joseph 
Fay,  Esq..  be  and  he  is  hereby  appointed  and  requested 
to  procure  a  printer  iu  thi.s  State." 

August  18.  the  same  year  the  Council  "Resolved  that 
the  agreement  relative'to  a  printer,  between  Stephen  R. 
Bradley.  Esq.  in  behalf  oftne  State  of  Vennont  and  Mr. 
Timothy  Green,  printer  at  New  London,  Conn.,  be  and 
hereby  IS  ratified  on  condition  that  Mr.  Green  «end  his 
son  to  print  for  this  State  in  lieu  of  Mr.  Spooner." 


"Resolved  that  Mr.  Ezra  Styles  be  and  he  is  hereby 
appointed  and  iiupowered  to  repair  as  soon  as  may  be  to 
New  Loudon  to  inform  Mr.  <.;recn  of  the  ratification  [of 
the  agreement]  made  between  Stephen  R.  Bradley,  Esq., 
aud  Mr.  Green  aforesaid,  and  facilitate  as  much  as  possi- 
ble the  moving  of  tlic  types  and  other  apparatus  for  the 
purpose  of  printing,  agreeable  to  said  agreement." 

October  14,  1780,  the  Council  resolved  :  "Whereas  it 
has  been  represented  to  this  Council  that  there  is  a 
printing  office  in  the  town  of  Westminster  within  this 

State,  the  property  of Pale    [or  GaleJ.  formerly  an 

inhabitant  of  that  place,  who  has  gone  over  to  and  joined 
the  enemies  of  this  aud  the  United  States  of  America, 
thereupou.  Resolved  that  Ezra  Stiles,  Esq.,  be  and  he  is 
hereby  authorized  and  empowered  to  seize  the'same  and 
take  it  into  possession  for  the  use  of  this  State,  and  to 
retain  the  same  until  cause  can  be  shown  {by  such  as 
lay  claim  thereto),  why  it  should  not  be  adjudged  for- 
feit and  confiscated  to  the  use  of  this  State."  It  appears 
that  at  the  above  date  (ireen  and  Spooner  had  not  then 
moved  from  Dresdeu  to  Westminster. 

It  does  not  appear  that  the  printing  office  referred  to 

was  ever  put  in  operation  at  Westminster,  by Pale 

[or  Gale). 

The  next  we  hear  of  the  matter  is  in  Council,  March  i, 
17S2.  Tlie  General  Assembly  ha\'ing  appointed  a  com- 
mittee for  the  purpose,  the  Council  instructs  the  commit-

cannot  be  secured,  the  committee,  with  the  consent  of 
the  proprietors,  are  to  move  the  material  to  Benning- 
ton, etc.  It  appears  that  the  Westminster  printers  were 
dilatory  iu  their  work,  but  it  does  not  appear  that  the 
otlice  was  moved  to  Bennington.  See  Assembly  Journal,

The  earliest  Vermont  imprint  we  have  found,  except- 
ing the  Proclamation  noticed  by  Mr.  Walton  above, 
(which  was  undoubtedly  printed  at  Dresden),  is  the  acts 
aud  laws  passed  at  the  February  Session  at  Windsor, 
1781;  with  the  imprint:  *'Westminster:  Printed  by  Judah 
P.  Spooner  aud  Timothy  Green,  Printers  to  the  State  ol 
Vermont."    rl.  8vo,  pp.  ri.     No  date. 

Probably  the  laws  of  the  April  Session,  1781,  and  per- 
haps others,  were  printed  there,  but  the  title  pages  are 
wanting.

once  more  determined  to  strive  against  the  stream,  in 
hopes  that  the  current  will  turn." 

Mr.  Haswell  continued  the  paper  until  Thursday, 
March  6,  1800,  when  a  new  series  was  commenced,  Vol. 
I.  No.  I,  "Printed  by  Aothony  Haswell  for  the  Propri- 
etors." Thiscontinued  until  March  30,  iSoi.  when  "Has- 
well's  Vermont  Gazette  revived"  appeared,  printed  by 
Anthony  Haswell,  Vol.  i,  No.  i.  April  19,  1802,  the  title, 
"Vermont  Gazette"  resumed,  "By  A.  Haswell.  Printer 
for  the  Western  District  of  Vermont,  and  of  the  Laws  of 
the  Union."  On  this  auspicious  occasion  Mr.  Haswell, 
in  an  editorial,  said:  "he  has  commenced  a  new  volume 
of  said  paper,  flushed  with  hope,  'which  springs  eternal 
in  the  hnmau  breast,'  that  he  shall  reap  from  it.  and 
business  'connected  with  it,  a  decent  support  for  his 
family.** 

Prosperity  continued  until  January  3,  1803,  when  the 
publication  of  the  paper  was  suspended,  as  Mr.  Haswell 
states  in  an  editorial,  "from  the  pressure  of  imperious 
necessity,  arising  from  straightened  circumstances," 
until  April  6,  1S03,  when  its  publication  was  resumed  by 
himself  and  sons,  under  the  firm  of  Anthony  Haswell  & 
Co.,  by  a  new  series,  Vol.  i,  No.  i.  At  the  end  of  one 
year  the  sons  retired,  and  Haswell  continued  until  July 
2ii,  1S04,  when  financial  difficulties  necessitated  a  suspen- 
sion of  a  week ;  then  followed  two  numbers,  August  7 
and  14. 1804,  in  reduced  size,  "Printed  for  Anthony  Has- 
well." September  4,  1S04,  the  former  size  was  resumed, 
"Printed  by  A.  Haswell  &  B.  Smead." 

The  paper  was  continued  under  this  firm  until  Janu- 
ary 6,  1S06,  when  Mr.  Haswell  retired,  and  Jit.  Benjamin 
Smead  became  the  proprietor.  Mr.  Haswell  in  his  vale- 
dictory said  ;  "The  subscriber  who  has  performed  the 
business  of  the  editorship  of  the  "Vermont  Gazette" 
from  the  month  of  May,  1783,  to  the  commencement  of 
the  year  1806,  now  finds  himself  under  the  necessity  of 
relinquishing  his  business,  at  least  for  a  time,  *  *  *  * 
after  twenty-three  years  of  unremitted  attention  to  the 
type  case  and  writing  desk,"  etc. 

The  title  to  the  paper  under  Mr.  Smead  was  "The  Ver- 
mont Gazette;  An  Epitome  of  The  World."  No.  i.  Mon- 
day, January  13,  1806.  February  24,  1S07,  Vermont 
Gazette  was  dropped,  and  the  name  was  "Epitome  of 
the  World,"  until  October  26,  1S07,  when  it  is  simply 
"The  World,"  until  April  10,  1809,  when  the  name  is 
again  changed  to  "Green  Mountain  Farmer,"  Printed  by 
Benjamin  Smead.  Vol.  i.  No.  i.  The  next  issue  that  we 
have  is  Aprils,  i8n.  Printed  by  William  Haswell;  in  1813 
Darius  Clark  &  Co.  took  the  place  of  Mr.  Haswell,  and 
October  24,  1814.  Darius  Clark  alone  was  printer. 

The  "Farmer"  of  May  27,  1816,  announces  the  death  of 
Anthony  Haswell.  on  the  22d  instant,  in  the  sixtj'-first 
year  of  his  age,  and  gives  a  sketch  of  his  life,  occupying 
two  columns. 

In  Vermont  Historical  Gazetteer  the  date  ol  his  death 
is  giveu  as  the  26th,  which  is  an  error. 

Soon  after,  Mr.  Clark  substituted  the  old  name,  "Ver- 
mont Gazette."  in  place  of  "Green  Mountain  Farmer," 
but  the  numbering  of  the  Farmer  is  continued.  Vol.  vii. 
No.  47. 

Mr.  Clark  continued  the  Gazette  until  September  2, 
1823,  when  he  retired  for  a  time,  and  Charles  DooHttle 
became  publisher,  of  whom  .Mr.  Clark  said  in  his  fare- 
well editorial :  -'The  paper  will  be  continued  by  Charles 
Doolittle,  a  young  man  who  has  worked  in  the  office  the 
last  three  years."  Mr.  Clark  continued  as  to  himself: 
"It  is  about  nine  years  since  the  editor  commenced  his 
employment  as  conductor  of  this  paper,  and  it  is  neces- 
sary that  he  should  have  a  vacation  to  arrange  his  pecu- 
niary concerns." 

Mr.  Doolittle  conducted  the  paper  until  the  spring  of 
of  1825,  when  Mr.  Clark  resumed  control,  it  is  to  be 
hoped  with  his  finances  improved.  But  not  so,  for  June 
IQ,  1837,  Mr.  Clark's  name  disappeared  as  proprietor,  and 
the  paper  was  "Printed  for  the  Proprietor."  An  editorial 
states:  "The  financial  concerns  of  the  'Gazette'  are 
placed  under  the  superintendence  of  the  proprietor's 
agent,  with  whom  all  matters  of  that  character  will  be 
transacted." 

This  state  of  affairs  continued  until  January  18, 1832, 
when  John  C.  Haswell  became  publisher  and  proprietor, 
with  the  name  of  Andrew  Jackson  hoisted  to  the  fore  for 
President  of  the  United  States.  Mr.  Haswell  in  his  salu- 
tatory says:  "The  present  number  ol  the  Gazette  com- 
mences the  fiftieth  year  of  its  existence.  The  first  editor 
of  the  'Gazette,'  the  father  of  the  present  publisher,  was 
fined  and  imprisoned,  and  his  successors  have  been 
maligned  and  persecuted,  by  the  Federalists,"  etc.  Mr, 
Haswell  announces  his  firm  support  of  Gen.  Jackson, 
etc. 

June  18,  1833.  Mr.  Haswell  enlarged  the  'Gazette'  to 
16x26  inches  per  page  :  February  23,  1S41,  again  enlarged 
to  17x28. 

May  31,  1842,  John  C.  and  Zimri  Haswell  became  pro- 


prietors, the  former  as  editor;  September  20,1842,  Mr. 
John  C.  Haswell  retired,  and  his  place  was  supplied  by 
Mr.  J.  Bushnell,  and  Zimri  Haswell,  and  Mr.  Bushnell 
conducted  the  Gazette  until  February  16.  1847. 

At  about  the  above  date,  through  differences  of  opinion, 
and  rivalries  between  the  villages,  two  rival  series  of  the 
"Gazette,"  each  claiming  to  be  continuation  of  the  orig- 
inal Gazette,  were  commenced,  one,  published  on  Ben- 
nington Hill,  the  old  line  apparently,  by  Edwin  Robin- 
son ;  the  other  series,  at  the  East  Village,  by  J.  C. 
Haswell.  editor  until  March  28,  1S49,  when  he  was  suc- 
ceeded by  H.  B.  Kui;iht. 

This  series  appears  to  have  been  an  organ  of  the  "Free 
Soil"  element  m  politics. 

Mr.  Robinson  was  succeeded  by  the  "Gazette  Com- 
pany." Febniar>'  6,  1849,  and  the  company  was  succeeded 
by  Aikens  &l,ull,  April  17,  1849,  as  publishers.  Andrew  J. 
Aikens,  editor ;  May  16,  1850,  Mr.  Lull  retired,  and  Mr. 
Aikens  continued  as  publisher  and  editor. 

The  publication  of  the  Gazette  was  suspended  from 
1853  to  1873.  In  the  latter  year  it  was  revived  by  H.  t,. 
Stillson.  In  1874-5  it  was  published  by  Childs  Brothers, 
and  from  '76  to  '80  by  Baker  &  Cochran.  It  ceased  publi- 
cation in  1880. 

According  to  Z.  Thompson,  the  "Tablet  of  the  Times" 
was  established  at  Bennington,  by  Merrill  &  Langdon, 
January,  1797  ;  and  "The  State  Banner,"  by  E.  Davis  in 
March,  1841,  the  latter  beiugstill  published. 

According  to  Gov.  Hall,  in  Vermont  Historical  Gazet- 
teer, vol.  I.  p.  176,  Mr.  A.  Haswell  commenced  the  publi- 
cation of  "The  Monthly  Miscellany  or  Vermont  Maga- 
zine," in  Svo  size,  each  number  containing  56  pages,  at 
Bennington,  March,  1794;  it  was  soon  discontinued. 

In  January,  1808,  Mr.  Haswell  commenced  another 
monthly  magazine,  called  "The  Mental  Repast,"  in  i2mo. 
size,  which  was  discontinued  at  the  end  of  six  months. 

"Journal  of  The  Times,"  Henry  S.  Hull  Proprietor, 
William  Lloyd  Garrison.  Editor,  was  published  from  Fri- 
day, October  3,  1828,  until  July,  1829,  and  perhaps  after. 

"The  Battle-Ground,"  by  Cady  &  Atkins,  was  com- 
menced in  Au^st,  1853.  After  the  issue  of  nine  num- 
bers, Mr.  Atkins  retired,  and  purchased  "The  Republi- 
can Standard,"  at  Bellows  falls,  which  he  re-christened 
the  "Bellows  Falls  Argiis."  (See  Bellows  Falls.)  Mr. 
Cady  continued  "The  Battle-Ground"  about  two  months, 
when  he  transferred  his  subscription  list  to  the  "Bellows 
Falls  Argus." 

In  1S71  "The  Bennington  Free  Press"  was  established 
by  C.  M.  Bliss,  ceasing  publication  within  a  year. 

"  The  Bennington  State  Banner"  established  in  1841,  is 
still  published  (iSg6)  by  C.  A.  Pierce,  by  whom  and  by 
Pierce  &  Co.,  it  has  been  published  for  25  years  or  more. 

"The  Dailj'  News."  by  Frank  Pierce  Armstrong,  Vol.  i. 
No.  I,  Monday,  June  7,  1875.  The  latest  we  have  seen  is 
of  September  26,  1875. 

"The  Vermont  Centennial,"  by  Childs  Brothers,  daily, 
June  16,  to  September  14,  1877. 

In  1873  the  "True  Union,"  monthly,  was  published  for 
a  short  time  by  the  Union  Company. 

From  1881  to '83  the  "Bennington  County  Reformer" 
was  published  by  A.  P.  Childs.  From  iSgi  on  "The  Re- 
former" was  published  by  J.  H.  Livingston;  continued, 
(1896.) 

—  Windsor. 

Thomas  in  hishistory  of  printing  says  :  "George  Hough 
purchased  the  press  and  type  of  Green  and  Spooner,  of 
Westniiuster,  and  removed  them  to  Windsor,  where,  in 
compauy  with  Alden  Spooner,  he  began  printing  in 
1783." 

Hough  &  Spooner  commenced  the  publication  of  the 
third  newspaper  in  the  State  at  Windsor,  August  7,  1783. 

We  give  the  title  and  a  description  of  the  paper : 

"The  Vermont  Journal,  and  the  Universal  Advertiser." 
Vol.  I.  No.  I.  Thursday,  August  7,  1783.  Windsor; 
Printed  by  Hough  and  Spooner.

See  Lyman,  G.  C.  for  Windsor  imprint,  17S4. 

The  "Journal  "at  Windsor  has  been  continued  to  the 
present  time,  with  the  exception  of  a  suspension  of  nine 
years,  1835  to  1844. 

In  March,  1801,  Nahum  Mower  established  the  "Ver- 
mont Gazette,"  at  Windsor,  which  was  probably  suc- 
ceeded by  "The  Post  Boy,"  also  by  Mower,  which  was 
published  January,  iSostoJanuary,  iSo3;  its  full  name  was 
"The  Post  Boy  and  Vermont  and  New  Hampshire  Fed- 
eral Courier."  It  was  a  small  affair,  measuring  11x18^,

The  "Vermont  Phienix,"  the  first  number  of  which  was 
published  September  12,  1834,  by  George  W.  Nichols  and 
William  E.  Kyther,  arose  from  the  ashes  of  the  "Mes- 
senger," by  Mr.  Nichols,  and  the  "Independent  Inquirer," 
by  Ryther.  The  "Inquirer,"  a  liberal  religious  paper, was 
published  about  one  year  before  uniting  with  the  "Mes- 
senger" to  form  the  Phienix.  Nichols  &  Rjther  con- 
tinued the  Phttnix  until  1836,  September  30th,  when 
they  sold  to  G.  C.  Hall  and  J.  C.  Holbrook;  the  Phtcmx

—  Woodstock. 

The  first  Woodstock  newspaper  was  the  "Northern 
Memento,"  established  by  Isaiah  H.  Carpenter  in  1805. 
The  prospectus,  Issued  in  October  of  the  preceding  year, 
has  perhaps  enough  interest  to  warrant  its  reproduction 
entire  ;  it  runs  as  follows  ; 

Proposal  of  Isaiah  H.  Carpenter,  for  pubHshing  in 
Woodstock.  (Vermont,)  A  Weekly  Newspaper,  to  be  en- 
titled The  Nothern  Memento. 

Conditions.  1.  The  Northern  Memento  will  be 
published  every  week  on  the  day  which  will  best  accord 
with  the  arrival  of  the  mail.  11.  It  shall  be  printed 
with  a  handsome  Type  and  good  Paper,  as  large  as  either 
of  the  Windsor  papers.  III.  The  price  will  be  One 
Dollar-  and  Fifty  Cents  per  annum,  delivered  at  the  Office. 
IV.  If  sufficient  encouragement  should  be  offered,  the 
publication  will  commence  some  time  in  May  next,  of 
which  previous  information  will  be  given. 

To  THE  Public.  Of  all  the  numerous  periodical  publi- 
cations daily  sent  out  to  the  public  newspapers  are  uni- 
versally acknowledged  to  be  the  most  useful.  And  when 
conducted  with  propriety,  impartiality,  and  discretion, 
have  the  direct  tendency  to  cultivate,  improve,  and  en- 
large the  public  mind.  It  is  allowed,  that  newspapers 
are  not  and  cannot  be  solely  appropriated  to,  and  em- 
plo>ed  in  literarv  communications,  and  scientific  re- 
searches; yet  they  are  the  medium  through  which  every 
new  improvement,  or  discovery  in  the  arts  and  sciences 
are  conveyed  to  the  people  at  large;  and  that  in  the 
cheapest  and  most  expeditious  way  possible.  They  are 
the;^(7/iV/f(7/ Salt  of  our  country;  and  was  the  Freedom  of 
the  Press  to  be  weakened  or  destroyed,  and  newspapers 
to  lose  their  Savour,  and  the  public  patronage,  our 
rights  and  liberties  would  fall  with  them.  As  well  might 
you  preserve  your  rights  and  privileges,  your  libertyand 
independence  without  the  aid  and  assistance  of  the 
Press,  as  to  save  your  bacon  without  salt.  If  then,  the 
public  welfare  is  so  immediately  connected  with,  and  in- 
terested in,  the  circulation  of  well  regulated  and  con- 
ducted newspapers,  and  the  public  are  influenced  in  so 
great  a  degree  by  them;  surely  then,  they  are.  and 
ought  to  be  encouraged  and  supported  by  every  honest, 
virtuous  and  Independent  American. 

In  a  Kepublican  Government  like  ours,  they  are  the 
necessary  regimen  to  nourish  and  support  social  order. 
They  are  the  constant  sources  of  information,  both  For- 
eign and  Domestic.  And  their  efforts  in  all  free  govern- 
ments are  diffusive  and  lasting.  And  although  Despots 
and  Tyrants  dread  and  fear  them,  as  a  mirror,  in  which 
may  be  seen  their  vices  and  deformity:  yet  to  every  true 
born  son  of  Freedom,  they  are  the  Palladium  of  safety. 

The  subscriber  wishes  that  his  abilities  were  equal  to 
his  zeal  to  serve  the  Public.  And  in  conducting  the 
paper  for  which  he  solicits  the  patronage  of  his  Fellow 
Citizens;  he  pledges  his  utmost  exertions  to  merit  their 
fa\'or  and  esteem.  Viewing,  as  he  does,  the  two  great 
political  parties,  that  now  divide  our  common  Country  as 
both  consisting  of  men  who  have  fought  and  bled  for  her 
independence— Men  possessing  the  greatest  share  of 
talents,  and  information;  educated  and  brought  up  in 
habits  of  piety,  virtue  and  morality — Men,  whose  hon- 
esty and  integrity  are  unsuspected  and  unimpeached. 
Surely  such  men  could  never  seriously  mean  to  subvert 
and  destroy  the  happiness  and  freedom  of  our  Country. 

Uninfluenced  by  tlie  violence  and  spirit  of  party 
rage,  the  columns  of  The  Northern  Memento,  shall 
be  free  and  open  to  the  communications  of  all,  when 
written  with  decency  and  decorum.  Pieces  calculated  to 
amuse,  inform  and  enlighten  the  mind,  shall  ever  be  re- 
ceived with  pleasure,  and  the  most  grateful  acknowledg- 
ments; whi  e  those  aimed  with  the  envenomed  shaft  of 
calumny  and  detraction  against  either  private  or  public 
characters  shall  be  rejected  with  merited  contempt.  Im- 
pressed with  (hese'ideas  and  views,  and  llattering  him- 
self with  the  hope  of  an  extensive  patronage  and  sub- 
scri[ition;  wishing  the  happiness  and  prosperity  of  his 
fellow  citizens,  he  tenders  them  his  service,  and  if  en- 
couraged will  ever  remain  their  Humble  Servant. 

October.  1804.  ISAIAH  H.  CARPENTER. 

This  propo^^al  was  printed  on  sheets  and  circulated 
through  Woodstock  and  neighboring  townsfor  subscrip- 
tions, receiving  128  names  as  appears  by  the  copies  that 
have  been  preserved  The  whole  number  of  subscribers 
to  the  paper  was  doubtless  somewhat  larger  than  that. 


although  quite  small,  and  the  prospect  was  such  that 
Carpenter  felt  warranted  in  proceeding  with  the  enter- 
prise, and  May  16,  1805,  the  first  number  of  the  Memento 
was  issued.  But  it  was  not  a  success.  Party  spirit  ran 
high  at  the  time  and  the  paper  was  Republican,  notwith- 
standing the  amusing  suggestion  of  the  prospectus  that 
it  would  in  politics  stick  tight  to  the  fence;  a  sharp  at- 
tack upon  Benjamin  Swan  of  Woodstock,  state  treasurer, 
who  was  a  Federalist,  occasioned  the  loss  of  some  sup- 
port, and  after  a  troubled  existence  of  nine  months  the 
Memento  was  discontinued  in  February,  1806.  Carpen- 
ter's printing  office  was  in  his  house,  a  wooden  building 
yet  in  good  condition,  fronting  south  near  the  east  end  of 
the  park. 

The  second  newspaper  published  here  was  the  "Wood- 
stock Observer."  started  by  David  Watson  in  January, 
1820,  which  had  a  fairly  prosperous  life.  In  the  earlier 
years  of  this  paper  political  parties  hardly  existed,  but 
the  Observer  became  National  Republican  upon  the 
formation  of  that  party  during  the  administration  of 
Adams,  and  so  remained  until  the  election  of  Jackson  in 
182S,  when  it  became  Jacksonian.  At  the  beginning  of 
its  fourth  year,  in  January,  1823.  the  paper  was  enlarged 
and  given  the  additional  title  of  "Windsor  and  Orange 
County  Gazette,"  and  in  January,  1827,  it  was  again  en- 
larged. In  November,  1823,  it  passed  into  the  hands  of 
Rufus  Colton.  who  continued  to  publish  it  until  1S33.  In 
1827,  1828,  and  perhaps  in  otheryears,  Benjamin  F.  Ken- 
dall was  the  assistant  editor,  and  in  January,  1830.  Col- 
ton announced  that  B.  F.  Fellows  had  taken  the  place; 
but  under  the  masonic  excitement  of  this  time  new  papers 
sprang  into  existence  which  crowded  the  Observer  Into 
the  background,  and  in  1833  Its  publication  was  finally 
suspended. 

In  1820  a  small  Universallst  quarterly  magazine  of  48 
pages  to  the  number  was  started  by  Rev.  S.  C.  Loveland, 
called  the  "Christian  Repository,"  Mr.  Loveland  appear- 
ing as  editor  and  David  Watson  as  printer.  It  was  con- 
tinued until  1827,  when  Mr.  Loveland  sold  out  to  Rev. 
Robert  Bartlett,  who  conducted  it  until  1829,  when  he  sold 
to  Rev.  William  Bell.  Mr.  Bell  changed  the  form  of  the 
publication  to  that  of  a  weekly  newspaper  which  he  call- 
ed the  "Universalist  Watchman  and  Christian  Reposit- 
ory," and  published  for  about  seven  years,  when  he  sold 
it  to  Rev.  B.  H.  Fuller  and  Rev.  J.  M  Austin,  who  moved 
it  to  Montpelier.  Soon  after  being  moved  to  that  place 
Mr.  Austin  sold  out  to  Rev.  John  Moore  of  Lebanon.  N. 
H.,  and  for  a  short  time  the  paper  was  published  at  that 
place,  but  Rev.  Joseph  Wright  finally  become  the  sole 
owner  and  again  took  it  to  Montpelier,  where  he  publish- 
ed iluntiljuly,  1840.  Ithad  absorbed  several  other  papers 
and  at  this  time  had  several  titles — Universalist  Watch- 
man, Green  Mountain  Evangelist,  Impartialist,  and 
Christian  Repository, — but  comiiigthen  into  the  hands  of 
Rev.  EU  Ballon,  all  titles  except  the  first  one  of  Christian 
Repository  were  dropped,  and  the  paper  was  continued 
by  Mr.  Ballon  until  May,  1870,  when  It  was  sold  to  the 
Universalist  of  Boston. 

In  February,  1830,  was  issued  the  first  number  of  the 
"Domestic,  Medical,  and  Dietetical  Monitor,  or  Journal 
of  Health."  a  monthly  publication  of  24duodecimo  pages, 
conducted  by  .Tohn  Harding  and  printed  by  David  Wat- 
son. The  title  indicates  the  character  of  this  little  peri- 
odical, which  lived  through  only  a  few  numbers. 

"Bethlehem  Star,"  Vol.  i,  No.  5,  1824.  Printed  by  David 
Watson.     i2mo,  p.  36. 

In  March,  1821.  Rev.  Walter  C  hapin  of  the  Congrega- 
tional church  issued  the  prospectus  of  a  small  missionary 
paper  to  be  published  fortnightly  at  50  cents  per  year 
and  called  the  "Evangelical  Monitor."  The  first  number 
was  printed  April  14.  1S21,  and  the  publication  was  con- 
tinued under  the  management  of  Mr.  Chapin  for  two 
years,  but  it  met  with  no  great  success  and  at  the  end  of 
the  second  volume  was  discontinued.  David  Watson  was 
the  printer. 

Another  religious  paper,  also  published  fortnightly, 
was  the  "Gospel  Banner,"  started  by  Rev.  Ja.sper  Hazen 
and  AbnerD.  Jones  of  the  Christian  church  in  1827,  the 
first  number  being  issued  August  4th  of  that  year;  but  it 
lived  only  a  twelvemonth.     Rufus  Colton  printed  it. 

In  the  year  1828.  David  Watson  started  a  paper  called 
the  "Verinont  Inquirer,"  but  it  met  with  so  little  encour- 
agement that  but  few  numbers  were  printed. 

"Universalist  Watchman,"  by  William  Bell,  com- 
menced at  Woodstock,  1829;  moved  to  Montpelier,  and 
name  changed  to  "Christian  Repository,"  which  see. 

The  "American  VVhig"  was  established  at  about  the 
beginning  of  the  year  1830.  by  Hemenway  &  Sherwin. 
It  absorbed  the  "Vermont  Luminary"  of  Randolph  and 
another  paper  called  "Equal  Rights,"  and  appeared  in 
March.  1830,  Hemenway  v'^t  Holbrook  publishers,  with 
the  rather  formidable  title  of  "American  Whig,  Vermont 
Luminary  and  Equal  Rights;"  but  the  extra  names  were 
not  long  retained.    The  "Whig"  was  started  under  the

direction  of  the  anti-masonic  county  committee.  Joseph 
Hemenwaybeioc  the  nominal  editor,  although  much  of 
the  work  was  done  by  others,  chief  among  whom  was 
the  Rev.  S.  C.  Lovtiand.  Holbrook  remained  but  a  short 
time,  after  which  Hemenway  published  the  paper  aloue 
until  he  sold  out  to  Henr\'  L.  .\nthonv  in  1815,  who  kept 
the"Whig'until  it  came  to  the  end  of^iU  existence  ini8.i6. 
The  first  number  of  the  "Henry  Clay  and  .\dvocale  of 
the  American  System."  was  issued  September  4,  1830:  B. 
1'.  Kendall,  editor.  David  Watson,  printer.  After  run- 
ning a  year  the  name  was  changed  to  "Vermont  Courier 
and  Farmers'.  Manufacturers,'  and  Mechanics'  Advo- 
cate." In  lS^4  the  secondary  title  was  dropped  and  a 
little  later,  tlie  "WindLor  Republican  "  having  been  united 
with  it,  the  name  was  "Republican  and  Courier.  "  until 
J.  B.  Si  S.  L.  Chase  bought  it  in  1536.  when  it  was  again 
called  the  "Vermont  Courier,"  and  so  remained  until 
finally  discontinued  in  1,838.  Following  Watson,  William 
W.  Prescott  and  C.  K.  Smith  and  Kendall  under  the  Hrni 
name  of  C.  K.  Smith  &  Co.,  in  turn  were  printers,  but 
Ken  fall  remained  as  editor  until  succeeded  by  the 
Chases. 

These  two  papers,  the  "Whig"  and  the  "Courier." 
united  in  opposing  Jackson  but  were  opposed  to  each 
other  in  the  masonic  war  which  raged  so  violently  at  the 
time,  and  fought  with  the  utmost  vigor  and  ferocity, 
their  columns  fairly  bristling  with  capital  letters  and 
strong  language.  Kendall  was  what  the  opposition 
called  a  "Jackmason,"  that  is,  he  acted  with  the  masons 
but  did  not  belong  to  the  order.  Me  was  a  better  editor 
than  the  "Whig  '  ever  had,  and  in  fact  the  "Courier" 
under  his  management  was  considered  the  sharpest 
paper  ever  puhlisheil  in  Vermont.  While  conductini;  the 
""Courier  "  Kendall  was  twice  sued  for  lihel.  one  of  the 
parties.  Titus  Hutchinson,  getting  a  small  judgment. 
Mr.  Kendall  was  born  in  Woodstock,  in  October,  1799. 
fitted  for  college  but  never  entered,  married  Louisa  Hoi- 
Ion,  of  Woodstock,  in  1828,  went  to  Indiana  and  began 
farming  in  1844.  and  died  there  March  7,  1854. 

About  the  year  1810  Thonia- E.  Powers.  John  D.  Pow- 
ers. Thomas  Ku-sell.  Nahum  Haskell.  Thaddeus  Haskell. 
Benjamin  Met  calf  and  a  few  other  young  men  organized 
a  club  for  free  religious  discussion  which  is  remembered 
as  the  ""infidel  club,"  and  lor  a  year  or  more  pnblish.d  a 
small  monthlv  magazine  called  "Liberal  E.xtracts,"  of 
infidel  character.  T.  E.  Powers  was  the  active  spirit  in  the 
clul)  and  in  editinvtthe  magazine,  and  as  both  T.  Haskell 
and  Metcalf  were  practical  printers,  the  worl<  was  all 
done  in  the  family,  so  to  speak.  Metcalf  invented  two 
power  printing  presses  at  about  this  time,  ouo  of  which 
printed  both  sides  of  the  sheet  at  one  operation. hut  neither 
proved  successful.  Of  course  these  men  mostly  outgrew 
their  infidel  notions.  ti   j  .u 

About  the  year  1831  an  agricultural  paper  called  the 
"'Workingman's  tJazelte"  was  started  hereby  William 
W.  Prescott,  but  was  short  lived. 

In  the  summer  of  l8.;3  Silas  Estahrook  published  a  sma  1 
anti-Masonic  campaign  paper  entitled  the  "Village  Bal- 
ance." .       .  .  ,, 

In  1836.  tlie  Whig  b>ing  dead,  an  anti-Masnnic  cam- 
paign piper  called  "The  Constitution"  was  published  for 
a  few  weeks.  Martin  Flint  of  Randolph  and  Titus  Hutch- 
inson of  Woodstock  biiiig  the  chief  movers  in  the  busi- 
ness, and  Henry  S.  Hutchinson  acting  as  editor.  The 
opposition  called  it  in  derision,  "Martin's  Tupennv." 

The  same  season  another  campaign  paper  called  "The 
Hornet."  a  small  sized  aflair.  was  published  by  "'Timothy 
Tickle  .t  Co.."  with  the  purpose,  as  set  forth  in  the  pro- 
spectus "to  blow  that  nuistv  concern.  The  Constitution, 
sky  high."  B.  F.  Ken  lall  and  T.  F..  Powers  were  the 
editors.  Neither  of  these  papers  were  Issued  more  than 
five  or  six  weeks. 

Pretty  much  all  Woodstock  newspapers  in  these  days 
were  largely  filled  with  personal  abuse  of  political  oij- 
ponents  of  such  character  as  would  have  found  little 
favor  in  tho  absence  of  extraordinary  political  excite- 
ment, and  the  little  campaign  papers  were  often  fairly 
scurrilous.  .     .   j   u     xi- 

In  1S37  the  ""Vermont  Mercury"  was  started  by  Na- 
hum Haskell  :.nd  Augustus  Palmer,  the  first  number 
being  issued  April  S,  and  had  a  tolerably  long  and  pros- 
perous life.  In  about  ten  years  the  name  wasclianged  to 
"Woodstock  Mercury."  and  in  1853  the  paper  was  given 
«he»<!dition:il  title  of  "Windsor  County  Advertiser. 
Thelast  number  of  the  "Mercury"  issued  was  at  the 
tlose  of  its  fourtperth  yearlvvolume,  March  R.  iSs.'i.  It 
was  always  Whig  in  politics  and  was  published  through- 
out by  Haskell  and  Palmer,  and  Mr-  Haskell  appeared  as 
editor  but  as  he  wns  a  most  industrious  bookbinder  and 
bookseller,  much  of  the  editorial  work  came  to  be  done 
by  other  persons,  chief  among  whom  weie  Norman  Wil- 
liams and  Thomas  E.  Powers.  Pending  the  Stale  elec^ 
tlon  in  1S42.  a  paper  was  published  called  the  WMig 
Advocate,"  with  Charles  I'    Marsh,  then  a   law   student, 


as  editor,  which  was  in  fact  a  campaign  edition   of  the 
".Mercury,"  and  which  had  quite  a  large  circulation. 

The  first  number  of  the  "Spirit  of  the  Age"  was  issued 
May  8.  1840;  Cnarles  G  Eastman,  editor  aud  publisher. 
At  the  end  of  the  third  year  the  nanie  was  changed  to 
"  Woodstock  Age"  and  so  continued  10  November,  1S45. 
when  Eastman  was  succeeded  by  A.  Y..  Kimball,  and  the 
old  name  resumed.  Kimball  Iras  succeeded  by  E.  M. 
Bro»n  in  May,  1847,  and  he  by  Wm.  D.  McMaUer,  who 
conducted  it  for  thirty-four  years.  The  "Age"  was  estab- 
lished as  a  Democratic  paper  and  has  always  been  fuch. 
except  tor  a  brief  support  o(  the  Free  Soilers  when  the 
old  Ucinocralic  party  split  on  the  slavery  (|uestion.  In 
1S44  E-istnian  issued  a  campaign  edition  of  the  paper 
called  the  "Coon  Hunter."  The  Age  is  now  (1896)  pub- 
lished by  E.  C.  Dana. 

•Henry  Clays  Duels."  (1844.)  A  campaign  sheet 
from  the  "Age  (.)ffice.'    4pp.  quarto. 

The  "Temperance  Herald"  was  started  in  1845,  and 
continued  about  four  years,  with  M.  P.  Parish  as  editor 
and  publisher.  The  name  indicates  the  purpose  of  this 
paper,  which  was  establishe  I  and  supported  by  sub- 
scriptions from  persons  specially  interested  in  the  tem- 
perance subject.  ,_       .     ,  J 

In  1853  the  sum  of  $500  was  raised  by  aubsciiptlon  and 
the  ""Vermont  Temperance  Standard"  was  started,  the 
first  number  being  issued  April  29  of  that  year;  Thomas 
E  Powers,  editor,  Lewis  Pratt,  Jr..  pulilisher.  This 
paper  met  with  great  success,  its  circulation  at  the  end 
of  the  first  year  being  3.000;  the  highest  ever  reached  by 
a  Woodstock  newspaper.  In  January,  1855,  Rev.  Guy  C. 
Sampson  succeeded  Powers  as  editor,  and  the  circula- 
tion running  down  as  the  temperance  excitement  subsi- 
ded, iu  January,  1857,  Wilbur  P.  Davis  and  Luther  O. 
Greene  bought  the  paper,  became  editois  and  puolishers. 
dropped  the  wo'd  "Temperance"'  Mom  the  litle,  and 
changed  its  character  to  that  of  a  local  newspaper.  In 
August,  1S60,  Mr.  Davis  retired  Irom  the  concern,  after 
which  Mr.  Greene  published  it  until  bis  death  in  1890. 
The  "Standard  "  has  been  Republican  in  politics. 

In  the  spring  of  1855.  an  agricultural  paper  called  the 
"Noitbern  Farmer  "  was  started  by  E  M.  Brown  and  A. 
B  Crosbv,  which  was  in  a  few  months  sold  to  W.  Scott 
Abbott,  who  moved  it  to  West   Randolph,  where  it   died 

'Vlie  first  number  of'TheOtta  Quechee  Posf'was  issued 
September  !■;.  1871.  the  name  was  changed  to  ""Woodstock 
Post"  in  August,  1S72,  and  the  last  number  was  i-sued 
June  4  187s.  Robert  A.  Perkins,  editor  and  publisher. 
The  "  Post "  was  Independent  Republican  in  politics  and 
supported  Greeley  in  1872.  . 

.Ml  these  Woodstock  newspapers  were  issued  weekly 
except  as  otherwise  indicated.  . 

•The  Acorn."  the  first  number  of  which  was  issued 
May  I,  1872,  was  an  amateur  paiier.  edited  and  printed 
by  bovsofabout  16  years;  was  iiublished  monthly,  had 
four  three  column  pages,  each  form  being  aM  by  6 
inches;  subscription  price  25  cents  (ler  year  John  t_. 
Dana,  Wm  N.  O.mpbell.  Harold  S.  Dana  and  Edward 
G  Bailey  conducted  it  the  first  year,  after  which  the 
two  first  named  continued  it  alone.  The  "Acorn  had  a 
Tirosperous  existence  for  seventeen  months,  when  its 
niblication  was  abandoned,  the  la^t  issue  being  the 
number  for  October,  i87,3-  The  "Acorn"  was  made  up  on 
the  lilau  of  larger  papers,  with  its  advertisements  ami 
several  departnienls.  was  neatly  printed  in  nonpareil 
ivpe  and  was  remarkably  well  edited  ;  in  fact  it  was  by 
all  odds  the  brightest  and  best  among  several  papeisol 
its  class  then  published  ill  Vermont.  .         ,      , 

Among  the  newspaper  editors  of  Woodstock  there  is 
one  man  who  may  he  entitled  to  more  than  a  passing 
notice  inthis  place,  although  no  great  part  of  the  work 
of  his  life  was  of  a  literary  character.  1  homas  J'-  Pow- 
ers grandson  of  Ur.  Stephen,  and  son  of  Dr.  John  U- 
Poiers,  was  born  in  Woodstock.  Nov  ember  14,  1808. 
After  leaving  the  village  schools  he  attended  .Koyalton 
Academy  forashorl  time,  and  it  being  determined  that 
heshouldstu.lv  medicine,  he  attended  lectures  at  the 
Caslleton  medical  school  in  1825,  and  at  Hanover  in  1826 
and  in  1827.  when  he  graduated.  He  continued  his  stu- 
dies in  his  father's  office  in  Woodstock,  and  commenced 
practice  there,  but  about  the  year  1831  married  Mary  t^ 
'laughter  of  Amos  Warren,  oi  Woodstock,  and  »ent  to 
Hartland,  with  a  view  of  establishing  a  practice  in  that 


place  The  attempt  was  abandoned  at  the  end  of  a 
year,  however,  and  Dr.  Powers  returned  to  Woodstock, 
where  he  passed  the  remainder  of  his  days.  The  pro- 
fessional  work  not  being  to  his  taste  he  graduall>  aban-

September  2,  1810,  a  negro  mobwaspubliihed  as  having 
occurred  in  Boston  at  this  time;  the  negroes  seized  a 
brother  smoke,  hurried  him  to  llic  common,  and  cut  off 
his  ears.     Were  the  Kii-KUix  ahout  in  those  days?

March  7,  181 1,  Amos  Hughec.  \^ho  was  a  machinist,  and 
cotmected  with  the  cotton  and  woolen  factory  before  men-

Kisk  carried  on  the  clothier's  business,  and  blue  dyeing 
at  his  shop  in  Montpelicr. 

May  30,  iSii,  the  Press  said  "we  nctice  in  the  last 
lf'a/f/fw/(7H  the  following  ;  'our  glorious  federal  triumph 
in  New  York  ;  the  Clinton  interest  is  no  more.*  This  is

Docs  the  Ifatchman  shoot  as  wide  of  the  mark  now-a- 
days  ? 

November  11,  r8i  t,  brought  the  file  near  the  war  of  i8i7, 
and  political  feeling  began  to  run  high.  The  editor  of 
the  yv«,v.  usually  so  dignified,  apologized  to  his  readers 
for  being  compelled  to  denounce  the  statements  of  the 
//''(j/rA/;/t?«  as  "willful  lies."  November  7,  1811,  Wright 
iS:  Sibley  purchased  the  entire  slock  of  the  "Freemen's 
Press"  establishment,  and  became  sole  proprietors;  and 
about  this  time  ihey  removed  "to  the  chamber  of  the 
White  Store  opposite  Major  Langdon's." 

Morse's  tavern,  sometimes  called  "People's  Rest," 
appears  to  have  been  the  usual  place  for  citizens'  meet- 
ings, etc. 

The  "white  store"  was  at  that  time  occupied  by  Sylva- 
nus  Baldwin,  then  Postmaster,  and  afterward  by  Hon. 
Daniel  Baldwin,  his  brother.  The  George  1*.  K.  Gove 
store  stood  where  Cross  &  Son's  extensive  establishment 
now  is,  and  was  a  one-story  building,  his  gin  distillery 
being  up  on  the  side  bill  in  the  vicin.ly  where  now  is  the 
tannery  of  Keith  &  Pecks.  The  'Morse  Tavern,"  or 
"People's  rest,"  stood  where  the  "Church  of  the  Messiah" 
now  is,  and  was  kept  by  the  father  of  Moses  Morse,  a 
former  well  known  citizen  of  Johnson. 

We  learn  from  Sylvanus  Baldwin.  Postmaster,  that  the 
mail  facilities  of  Monipelier  at  that  time  were  two  mails 
per  week  each,  from  the  South  and  West :  and  one  mail 
per  week  each  from  the  North  and  East.  We  notice 
that  Washington  news  was  from  twenty  to  thirty  da\s 
old  when  published  in  Montpelier. 

How  many  persons  are  now  living  (ifiSo)  in  Montpelier 
who  were  there  in  1810?  We  at  this  moment  think  of  but 
two — W.  W.  Cadwell,  Estj.,  and  Hon.  Daniel  baldwin. 
Of  course  there  may  be  others,  but  wc  do  not  happen  to 
know  them. 

After  the  suspension  of  the  Press  there  was  no  Demo- 
cratic pancr  in  Montpelier  until  1S26,  when  the  Hon. 
Isaac  Hill,  of  Concord,  N.  H.,  established  the  Vermont 
t'atriot  and  State  Gazette,  the  first  number  of  which  was 
issued  January  17,  1S26,  it  being  21x30  inches  ptr  page, 
mnaining  the  same  until  April  10,  1841,  when  it  was  en- 
larged to  24x36  inches. 

Immediately  alter  the  "Vermont  Patriot  and  State  Ga- 
zette" was  established,  the  name  of  the  "Watchman." 
the  fe<leral  organ,  was  changed  to  "Vermont  Watchman 
anil  Statetjazette." 

Mr.  Hill  placed  liis  brother.  George  W.  Hill,  in  charge 
of  the  Patriot  as  manager,  under  the  firm  of  George  W. 
Hill  and  Company,  with  Horace  Steele  as  editor.  The 
latter  remained  but  a  short  time,  and  was  succeeded  by 
Hugh  .Moore,  Esq,,  of  Concord.  N.  H  ,  wno  held  the  po- 
sition a  few  years,  he  being  an  educated  and  accom- 
plished gentleman,  and  in  this  connection  it  is  proper  to 
state  that  Mrs.  (ieorge  W.  Hill,  an  educated  and  accom- 
plished lady,  renderetl  important  service  in  the  editorial 
department  during  the  latter  years  of  her  husband's  con- 
nection with  the  paper.  Mr.  Hill  became  sole  publisher 
April  30.  1827,  and  so  continued  until  1S34,  when,  the 
business  not  meeting  his  expectations,  he  sold  the  entire 
establishment  to  W'illiam  Clark,  a  printer  who  had 
been  some  lime  foreman  in  the  oflice.  Mr.  Hill  was  ap- 
pointed Postmaster  under  General  Jackson,  and  held  the 
oftice  until  after  the  election  of  Van  Buren.  He  soon 
after  retired  to  a  farm  in  Lowell,  \'t..  and  about  1850  re- 
moved to  fohnson.  Vt.,  where  he  still  resides,  a  hale  old 
gentleman  of  the  "oldentime."    (1880.) 

At  the  time  Mr.  Clark  purchased  the  paper  he  made 
an  agreement  with  a  young  man  from  New  Hampshire  to 


do  editorial  work,  proof  reading,  etc.,  for  three  hundred 
flollars  per  annum.  This  young  man  was  Jeiemiah  T. 
Marston,  who  read  law  in  Montpelier,  and  ha<l  just 
opened  an  oftice  for  the  practice  rt(  tiis  profession.  This 
arrangement  continued  until  April  i,  1S3S,  when  Mr. 
Clark  sold  out  to  Marston  and  Georg»  W.  Barker,  for  llic 
>mn  of  jj,2oo.  which  was  considered  a  targe  price.  Mr. 
(lark  had  in  the  meantime  married  l*'anny,  daugh- 
ter af  Hon.  Isaiah  Silver,  of  Montpelicr.  After  closing 
ibe  sale  of  the  paper  he  moved  to  New  York  city,  and  be- 
i  ame  connected  with  the  great  printing  house  of  Trow  iV 
Company,  where  he  continued  until  the  failure  of  his  eye- 
sight, quite  reccnllv,  when  he  retired  from  business,  and 
now  ( 1880)  resides  in  Brooklyn,  N.  V.  Mr.  Barker  was 
Postmaster  under  Mr.  van  Buren.  and  after  the  "Hard- 
cider- Log  Cabin"  Campaign  of  184') he  retired  fromahe 
newspaper  business,  to  engage  in  building  railroads,  and 
died  not  long  since  in  Sheboygan,  Wis.  At  this  time  the 
political  aspect  was  tliscouraging,  but  Mr.  Marston.  who 
was  young  and  full  of  energy,  determined  to  persevere. 
;ind  became  sole  owner,  manager  andetlitor.  He  brought 
out  the  paper  enlarged,  as  before  stated,  at  an  additional 
cost  of  twelve  hundred  dollars.  Soon  the  prospect 
changed.  President  Harrison  died.  ''Hard  Cider"  be- 
came stale,  Marston  pushed  ahead  with  renewed  vigor, 
and  made  the  most  siiarkling,  lively,  wule  awake  and 
best  looking  paper  in  the  Stale,  which  he  continued  to  do 
until  January  I,  1S46,  when  he  sold  the  entire  establish- 
ment to  Charles  G.  Eastman  and  Joseph  B.  Danforth, 
who  continued  it  under  the  firm  of  Eastman  &  Lianforlh. 
the  former  being  editor  and  the  latter  business  man- 
ager. 

Mr.  Marston  accumulated  during  his  connection  with 
the  paper  fifteen  to  twenty  thousand  dollars,  a  handsome 
sum  for  those  days,  and  soon  after  moved  to  Madison, 
Wis.,  where  he  engaged  in  commercial  and  farming  , 
business.  He  married  a  daughter  of  Jacob  K.  Dodge  of 
Montpelier,  and  they  have  two  daughters  and  one  son, 
the  former  well  married,  we  believe.  Mrs.  K.  W.  Hy<le, 
of  Montpelier,  is  a  sister  of  Mrs.  Marston. 

Injuly,  1851,  Mr.  Eastman  purchased  the  interest  of 
Mr.  Danforth,  and  remained  owner,  manager  and  tditor 
of  the  "\'ermont  Patriot"   until  his  death,  September  16, 

1560.  Mr.  Eastman  was  born  in  Fryeburg,  Me.,  June  1. 
1816,  but  in  childhood  his  father  and  family  moved  to 
Barnard,  Vt.  He  entered  the  L'niversity  of  \'crmont  at 
the  age  of  eighteen,  but  remained  there  only  two  years. 
tUiring  which  time  he  was  associate  editor  of  the  Bur- 
lington Sentinel.  In  1R3S  be  established  the  Spit  it  of  the 
Age,  at  Woodstock,  which  he  published  and  edited  until 
his  removal  to  Montpelier.  He  was  Postmaster  at  Wood- 
stock antl  at  Montpelicr  for  several  years,  and  a  Senator 
for  Wasbington  county  in  1S51-52. 

Mr.  Eastman  published  a  small  volume  of  Burchard's 
Sermons  in  1S36;  and  in  1S48  a  \oluine  of  poems,  lamo, 
pp.  208.  In  addition  be  contributed  many  poems  to  re- 
views and  magazines,  and  delivered  poetical  addresses 
at  the  University  of  Vermont.  Dartmouth,  and  other  col- 
leges. In  1S46  Mr.  Eastman  married  Mrs.  Susan  S.  Ha- 
vens, daughter  o(  l>r.  John  l>.  Powers,  of  Woodstock, 
and  a  sister  of  the  late  Dr.  Ihomas  E.  Powers.  They 
iiad  one  daughter  and  two  sons.  The  daughter  married 
a  Mr.  Hartshorn,  a  native  of  Essex  county,  and  they  re- 
side at  Emmettsbnrgh.  Palo  Alto  county.  Iowa. 

Mr.  Danforth,  after  disposing  of  his  interest  in  the  Pa- 
triot, located  at  Rock  Island.  111.,  where  he  published  the 
"Rock  Island  Argus,"  a  Denioct-atic  paper  with  which  he 
bad  been  more  or  less  connected  since  he  left  Vermont, 
and  since  then  has  published  a  "National"  journal.  He 
is  a  native  of  Barnard. 

After  the  death  of  Major  Eastman  the  paper  was  con- 
tinued by  the  administrators  of  his  estate  until  January  i. 

1561,  when  it  was  sold  to  E.  M.  Brown, who  had  been  pub- 
lishing the"Age"at  Woodstock,  who  continued  its  pub- 
lication until  the  fall  of  that  year,  when  financial  (-mbar- 
rassments,  existing  before  he  came  to  Montpelier,  and 
want  ol  patronage  because  it  was  not  a  "Mive"  newspai>er, 
compelled  Mr.  Brown  to  relinquish  its  publication,  which 
was  then  continued  for  a  short  time  by  the  estate  of  C.  G. 
Eastman.  After  n  few  weeks,  the  estate,  not  finding  a 
]nirchaser,  gave  up  the  publication,  and  there  was  an  in- 
terregnum in  its  issue,  which  lasted  until  F-ebniary.  1863, 
when  it  was  resumed  bv  Hiram  Atkins,  who  purchased 
the  name  and  goodwill  from  the  estate  of  Mr.  Eastman. 

When  this  purchase  was  made  it  brought  the  Bellows 
Ealls  Argus  to  Montpelicr.  with  its  subscription  list  of  1700 
names,  and  united  it  with  that  of  the  Patriot,  the  com- 
bined list  of  the  .-^rgus  and  Patriot  being  three  thousand 
copies  per  week,  which  has  increased  until  it  is  over  six 
thousand.  .\t  the  outset  Mr.  Atkins  and  three  men  did 
all  the  work— mechanical,  editorial,  and  keeping  the 
books.  Now  (18S0)  twentvthree  persons  arc  directly  con- 
nected with  and  employed  in  the  office.  Then  there  was 
not  job  printing  enough  done  to  keep  one  man  busy  ;  now

ten  to  fifteen  persons  are  employed  continually  iu  that 
department.  This  success  was  achieved  despite  the  most 
virulent  opposition  until  within  a  few  years.  When  the 
consolidated  papers  began  their  issue  at  Moutpelier  it  was 
in  the  midst  of  the  great  civil  war.  Many  who  intended 
to  be  good  citizens,  and  to  do  no  wrong  to  Lheir  neighbors, 
seemed  to  believe  that  if  a  man  was  a  Democrat,  voting 
the  ticket  of  that  party,  he  was  a  rebel  and  a  traitor.  Yet 
others,  who  knew  better,  but  were  actuated  by  business 
or  political  jealousy,  charged  the  same  thing.  The  Free- 
man said,  "Now  let  us  see  who  will  dare  patronize  that 
paper,"  and  all  available  social,  business,  and  even  re- 
ligious iuflueuces  were  enlisted  iu  the  effort  to  "kill  out" 
the  Argus  and  Patriot.  When  the  purchase  was  made 
from  the  Eastman  estate,  the  Administrators  signed  the 
fol^jving  card  us  part  of  the  trade ; 

TO  THE  PUBLIC. 

Hiram  Atkins,  having  purchased  of  the  estate  of  the 
late  C.  G.  Eastman,  the  name,  good  will,  etc.,  of  the  Ver- 
mont Patriot,  and  transferred  the  publication  of  the  paper 
heretofore  owned  by  him  from  Bellows  Falls  to  Moutpe- 
lier, we  commend  the  Argus  and  Patriot  to  the  support  of 
the  frientis  and  patrons  of  Mr.  Eastman,  in  the  publica- 
tion of  the  Patriot. 

CHARLES  REED.  )    Adm'rs   of  the    Estate    of 

JAMES  T.  THURSTON,      }  C.  G.  Eastman. 

Montpelier,  February  lo,  1S63. 

After  that  card  had  been  published  a  few  times,  they  re- 
quested that  it  might  not  appear,  frankly  admitting  that 
it  was  his  right  to  continue  its  publication,  but  declaring 
that  the  pressure  on  them  because  their  names  appeared 
appended  to  that  card  was  greater  than  they  could  bear.  ' 
Mr.  Atkins  took  the  card  out  of  the  paper,  but  he  ever 
after  that  had  his  idea  about  the  backbone  of  those 
men. 

Another  incident  showing  the  animus  of  some  other- 
wise worthy  people  toward  the  Argus  and  Patriot  in  its 
earlier  days.  IS  the  fact  that  one  gentleman,  still  living 
and  an  estimable  man,  occupying  a  good  position  in  so- 
ciety and  as  a  business  man,  went  to  an  officer  of  Christ 
Church,  and  said,  "You  are  not  going  to  let  Atkins  have 
a  seat  in  the  church,  are  you?"  The  publisher  of  so  dis- 
loyal a  sheet  was  not  even  to  be  allowed  to  join  in  the 
?ublic  worship  of  God.  nor  to  have  the  benefit  of  clergy, 
he  mob  spirit  was  invoked,. too;  one  prominent  Repub- 
lican offered  I500  to  the  man  or  men  who  would  sack  the 
office,  and  furthermore  said  he  would  pay  all  fines  and 
penalties  that  might  grow  out  of  it.  Brickbats  and  stones 
thrown  through  the  windows  of  the  office  are  still  pre- 
served, as  mementos  of  those  days.  All  that  is  a  thing  of 
the  past.     "Let  the  dead  bury  their  dead  " 

The  office  of  the  Freemen's  Press  was  located  on  the 
easterly  side  of  Main  street,  south  of  and  adjoining  Beth- 
any church,  in  a  wooden  building,  yet  standing,  and  now 
occupied  by  Fisher  &  Colton  as  a  saddlerj'  hardware 
store. 

Mr.  Hill  located  the  Vermont  Patriot  on  the  westerly 
side  of  Main  street,  opposite  Bethany  church,  in  the 
wooden  structure  now  owned  by  Thomas  Moriart>',  and 
occupied  bv  William  Miller  as  a  grocery  store.  The  print- 
ing office  was  in  the  second  story,  the  rear  part  of  the 
first  story  being  occupied  by  a  Mr.  Watson,  who  subse- 
quently went  to  Charleston.  S.  C,  and  died  there,  as  a 
bookbindery,  the  front  part  of  this  lower  floor  being  oc- 
cupied by  Mr.  Hill  as  the  post-office.  A  peculiar  custom 
was  in  fashion  in  relation  to  mail  delivery.  .  The  Southern 
and  Western  mails  arrived  by  stage  at  about  the  same 
time.  10  to  II  o'clock  a.  m.,  when  the  little  room  would  be 
crowded  to  excess  bv  those  waiting.  After  the  mail  was 
opened  Postmaster  Hill  would  read  out  in  a  loud  voice  the 
address  of  every  letter  received,  upon  the  conclusion  of 
which  there  would  be  a  stampede  of  those  for  whom 
there  were  no  letters. 

The  Patriot  continued  to  be  published  in  that  building 
until  it  passed  into  the  hands  of  Marston  &  Barker,  when 
it  was  removed  to  State  street,  in  the  Ballon  building, 
west  of  the  bridge  and  opposite  the  First  National  Bank. 
Here  the  printing  office  was  in  the  second  story;  on  the 
first  floor  in  front.  Mr.  Marston  had  a  bookstore,  while  in 
the  rear  a  large  reading  room,  well  supplied  with  news- 
papers, was  fitted  up  for  the  benefit  of  all  who  chose  to 
use  it.  It  was  there  that  the  friends  of  the  editor  of  the 
Patriot  of  all  parties  gathered  for  political  gossip  and 
news;  it  was  in  this  room  that  the  election  of  James  K. 
Polk  to  the  Presidency  was  first  announced  in  Mont- 
pelier. by  a  hurried  scrawl  from  Hon.  J.  McM. 
Shafter,  then  Whig  Secretary  of  State  for  Vermont,  writ- 
ten at  Burlington  and  forwarded  bv  the  stage  driver  to 
Col.  E.  P.  Jewett.  it  reading  as  follows:  "New  York 
gone ;  all  gone ;  we  have  got  to  take  Polk,  Texas  and  the 
aevil."  Wc  also  got  by  the  election  of  Polk  that  vast  and 
rich  territory  now  comprising  not  only  Texas,  but  New 
Mexico,  Utah,  Arizona,  Nevada  and  California,  to  which 


latter  State  Mr.   Shafter  moved  some    twenty-flve   years 
ftgo,  becoming  one  of  its  wealthy  and  prominent  men. 

Upon  thepnrchase  of  the  Patriot  by  Eastman  &  Dan- 
forth  the  office  and  bookstore  were  removed  across  the 
bridge  easterly,  to  a  wooden  building  then  standing  on 
the  southerly  side  of  State  street,  opposite  the  westerly 
tenement  of' 'Walton's  Block,"  where  it  remained  through 
the  administration  of  Eastman,  and  also  that  of  E.  M- 
Brown. 

When  tlie  Patriot  was  resuscitated  and  consolidated 
with  the  Argus,  the  Lyman  &  King  store,  on  Main  street, 
opposite  the  "old  brick  church,"  was  leased  for  the 
office  ;  a  year  later  the  buildiug  was  purchased  for  Mr. 
Atkins  by  Mr.  E.  F.  Kimball,  his  father-in  law.  Since 
then  a  two  story  and  attic  extension  have  been  put  on  in 
the  rear,  a  French  roof  story  added  to  its  height,  and  a 
new  front  put  in.  The  structure  is  now  known  as  the 
"Argus  and  Patriot  buildiug."

H.  D.  Hopkins  was  associate  editor  till  1S49.  During 
seven  years  following  the  paper  was  owned  successively 
by  Jacob  Scott,  D.  P.  Thompson  and  S.  S.  Boyce.  in 
1S61,  the  Freeman  was  purchased  by  Hon  C.  W.  VVil-

J.  W.  Wheelock  purchased  a  half  interest.  In  1873  Mr. 
Wheelock  became  sole  proprietor.  After  his  death,  in

In  Danville  the  fust  number  of  the  "North  Star"  was 
published  the  tirst  week  in  Januar\ ,  1S07,  and  is  still  (iS8ot 
continued  by  the  descendants  of  its  founder,  Ebenezer 
Eaton,  who  established  the  first  press  in  town,  the

town  in  the  Legislatures  of  1S76  and  1878.  In  1882  the 
Star  was  published  by  Hoyt  and  Preston,  and  subse- 
quently by  A.  B.  Hoyt  until  1S91,  when  it  ceased  publica-

— Barnard. 

At  Barnard  a  printing  press  was  in  operation  as  early 
as  1812 ;  we  have  not  met  with  Barnard  imprints  of  an 
earlier  date 

The  printing  office  at  Barnard  was  exclusively  a  book 
and  job  office,  as  no  newspaper  wasever  published  there; 
nearly  all  the  book  imprints  bear  the  names  of  "Joseph 
Dix.  Publisher,  and  I.  H.  Carpenter,  Printer."  Mr.  bix 
was  the  owner  of  the  establishment.  We  do  not  think 
this  press  was  in  operation  at  Barnard  much  over  three 
years.  Mr.  A.  C.  Moore  established  a  press  and  job 
office  at  Bethel  about  1S60,  and  in  1869  removed  the  office 
to  Barnard,  where  he  continued  business  for  some  years. 

Mr.  Dix  was  from  Massachusetts;  he  resided  some 
time  at  Worcester,  and  at  one  time  was  a  merchant  in 
Boston;  he  probably  resided  in  Barnard  three  or  four 
years,  when  it  is  said  he  moved  to  Rutland.  He  died  in 
1821. 

Miss  Dorothea  L.  Dix,  the  authoress  and  philantlirop- 
ist,  was  a  daughter  of  Joseph  Dix,  and  was  born  in  Wor- 
cester, Mass.  Her  schoolmates  at  Barnard  remember 
her  while  there  as  a  girl  of  tweUe  or  fifteen  years. 

—Bellows  Falls. 

The  following  in  relation  to  printing  at  Bellows  Falls 
was  principally  furnished  by  Juhn  W.  Moore,  Esq.,  of 
Manchester,  N.  H. 

The  first  newspaper  published  at  Bellows  Falls  village, 
in  Rockingham,  \'t..  was  "I  he  Bellows  Falls  Intelligenc- 
er," commenced  in  January,  1817;  it  was  very  neatly 
printed  and  of  large  size,  by  Blake,  Cutler  iSc  Co  ,  and  was 
edited  by  Thomas  Green  Fessenden,  a  lawyer  of  the 
place.  The  Intelligencer  was  ably  conducled.  and  was  a 
zealous  advocate  of  the  doctrines  of  the  old  federal  party. 
Mr.  Fessenden  continued  to  edit  the  paper  until  1822,  when 
he  removed  to  Boston.  Mass..  and  commenced  there  the 
"New  England  Farmer."  He  was  born  in  Walpole,  N. 
H..  April  22,  1771 :  graduated  at  Dartmouth  College  in 
1796,  and  died  in  Boston.  Mass..  November  11,  1837.  The 
Intelligencer  was  edited  for  a  time  after  Mr.  Fessenden 
left  it  by  William   Masters,   formerly  employed   in   the 


office  of  Jacob  B.  Moore,  of  Concord.  N.  H.  Later  the 
paper  was  edited  by  Cyrus  Barton,  by  Edmund  Burke, 
and  yet  later  by  John  U.  Wells.  Ii  wa^  then  sold  to  Mr. 
Samuel  Taylor,  who  continued  it  until  1835.  when  it 
passed  into  the  hands  of  Benjamin  G.  Cook,  who  changed 
its  name  to  "\'ermont  Intelligencer. '•  Mr.  Cook  sold  the 
establishment  to  William  Mack,  and  it  was  soon  after- 
wards discontinued. 

'i  he  "Vermont  Chronicle"  was  commenced  at  Bellows 
Falls  by  Kev.  E.  C.  Tracy,  in  April,  1816.  and  was  re- 
moved to  Windsor  in  October,  182S,  and  then  to  Montpe-

W.  Moore  in  1838,  and  continued  until  1851,  when  it  was 
sold  to  O.  H.  Piatt,  and  continued  at  Bellows  Falls  and 
Braltleboro  fur  a  short  time,  w  hen  Mr,  Piatt  commenced  a 
separate  paper,  "The  Bellows  Falls  Times."  which  went 
into  the  hands  of  A.  N.  Sw.Hin,  by  whom  it  was  pubUshed 
till  1SS8;  then  by  Frank  B.  Brown;  then  by  the  Times 
Publishing  Co.;  then  by  Emerson  and  Co.;  ihen(iH96)  bv

was  purchased  by  Hiram  Atkins,  and  merged  iTito  the 
"hellows  Falls  Argus." 

"I  he  "Bellows  Falls  Aigus"  was  commenced  December, 
1853.  by  Hiram  Atkins,  and  continued  until  February, 
1861,  when  Mr.  Atkins  was  persuaded  to  purchase  the 
"X'ermont  Patriot,"  which  be  conducted  with  marked 
ability  at  Moiitpelicr,  as  the  Argus  and  Patriot.  Since

The  above  brief  nutes  on  printing  and  newspapers  in 
Vermont  are  so  meagre  and  fragmentary  that  I  hesitated 
about  printing  them;  but  as  they  may  be  of  slight  ser\ice 
to  the  future  historian  of  new.spapers  in  the  State.  I  de- 
cided to  let  them  in. 

AMATHUK  PRINTING. 

The  first  amateur  paper  in  Vermont  of  which  we  have 
any  record  was  the  "Union  World."  of  Burlington,  in 
iS6'i;  but  it  was  not  until  1S72  thai  an  amateur  paper  in 
every  sense  of  the  word  appeared. 

In  the  latter  vt-ar  five  pa])ers  sprang  intoexislcnce.  two 
at  Burlington,  one  at  Rutland,  one  at  Bennington,  and 
one  at  Woodstock.  They  all  had  a  fair  ruu  for  about  two 
years  and  after  that  slowly  and  surely  went  the  way  of 
all  amateur  papers,  and  "woodbined  '  Of  these  the 
"Acorn."  of  Woodstock,  was  the  best  in  every  respect. 
In  1873  ^^^  ''Mustard  Seed."  of  Bentiinctoii.  was  first 
issued,  au  offshoot  of  the  "North  Star,"  published  at  that 
place  the  year  preWous. 

Between  the  early  part  of  1874  and  the  middle  part  of 
1875,  a  few  sheets  dragged  out  a  feeble  existence,  leaving

behiud  Iheni  no  records  showing  their  age.  One.  the 
"Young  American,"  however,  was  an  exception.  But  it 
was  only  during  tlie  editor's  attendance  at  school  that  it 
was  published  within  the  limits  of  the  State. 

In  1875  the  "Model."  of  Rutland,  was  the  only  paper  of 
any  consequence  in  the  State.  It  lived  through  hfteen 
numbers,  and  was  followed  by  the  "White  Knight." 
afterwards  the  "Knight,"  of  Morrisville.  Thispaperwas 
conducted  until  its  seventh  number,  when  it  suspended. 
The  "Postage  Stamp  Reporter,'"  of  Montpelier,  took  a 
high  position  in  its  particular  branch  of  araateurdom,  but 
suspended  in  September.  1877. 

Several  others,  such  as  the  "Young  Folks  Gazette,"  of 
St.  Albans,  "Buck's  Monthly,"  of  West  Randolph,  and 
the  ''Advance."  of  Brattleboro,  especially  the  latter,  have 
enjoyed  a  good  reputation  and  extended  circulation.  The 
"Green  Mountain  Boy,"  was  anotherlive  sheet.  Besides 
these  there  have  been  nearly  as  many  more  that  have 
struggled  through  a  few  months,  and  then  died. 

The  tirst  association  of  amateur  journalists  in  Vermont 
was  formed  at  Burlington,  and  called  the  Queen  City  A. 
P.  A.,  Will  H.  Nichols  being  the  first  President.  This  as- 
sociation lasted  a  few  months,  and  was  then  merged  into 
a  Green  Mountain  A.  P.  A.  This  latter  association  met 
for  the  first  time  at  Burlington,  January  17,  1874.  The 
second  convention  was  held  at  Montpelier  in  the  fall  of 
'75.  and  after  that  amateur  aftairs  began  to  decline 
throughout  the  State.

"My  parents  were  Rowland  T.  and  Rachel  Robinson. 
I  am  the  youngest  of  their  fourchildren  and  was  born  iu 
Ferrisburgh,  Vt.,  May  14,  1833.  I  am  a  farmer,  and  with 
the  exception  of  a  few  yearsspent  iu  New  York  as  a  de- 
signer on  wood,  have  lived  on  the  farm  to  which  my 
grandfather  carae  in  1797,  from  Vergennes,  where  he 
came  with  his  wife  from  Newport,  R.  I,  in  1792.  He  was 
the  great-grandson  of  Rowland  Robinson,  who  came 
from  England  to  Newport  in  1675.  For  many  genera- 
tions my  ancestors,  on  both  sides,  were  Quakers,  with 
the  exception  of  my  mother's  grandfather,  George  Gil- 
pin, who  was  a  Colonel  in  the  Revolutionary  Army,  a 
member  of  Washington's  staff,  and  a  pallbearer  at  his 
funeral.  My  life  has  been  very  uneventful.  In  1870  I  was 
married  to  Anna  Stevens  of  East  Montpelier,  and  we  have 
three  children.  For  more  than  two  years  I  have  been 
entirely  blind,  and  for  a  longer  time  quite  dependent  on 
my  wife  for  the  revision  and  copying  of  my  manu- 
scripts."

Mr.  Russell,  son  of  John  and  Lucretia(Preston)  Russell, 
was  born  in  Cavendish.  Vt.,  July  31,  1793;  died  at  DIufT- 
dale.  Green  county,  HI..  January  21.  186^:  he  was  gradu- 
ated at  Middlebury  College.  ifilS,  the  profits  of  his  two 
works,  "History  of  Vermont  State  Prison,'*  and  "History 
of  the  War  of  i3l2,''  mainly  supporting  him  while  in  col- 
lege. Immediately  after  his  graduation  Mr.  Russell  went 
to  Mcintosh  Co.,  Georgia,  where  he  tauglit  a  short  time, 
when  he  moved  to  White  Water,  Ind.,  where,  on  the  25th 
of  October,  1818,  he  married  Laura  Aim.  dauglitcrofCapt. 
Gideon  Spencer,  of  Vergennes,  Vt  ,  who  was  then  on  his 
way  west.  In  1819  Mr.  Russeil  moved  to  Bonhominic.  St. 
Louis  Co.,  Mo.,  where  he  was  tutor  in  a  private  family 
five  years :  while  at  this  place  he  wrote  his  famous  tem- 
perance Tale,  "The  Venomous  Worm,"  or  the  "Worm  of 
the  Still,"  which  gave  him  great  celebrity,  and  was  print- 


ed in  many  languages  in  Europe,  and  found  a  place  in 
American  and  British  school  books  of  the  time.  "The 
Venomous  Worm"  was  first  printed  in  the  "Missourian," 
a  local  new-spaper  at  St-  Charlt-s,  Mo.  Mr.  Russcllmoved 
to  Vaiidalia,  111.,  in  1825,  where  he tauifht  in  a  high  school, 
and  was  assistant  editor  of  the  "Illinois  Magazine,"  by 
James  Hall.  In  1828  .Mr.  Russell  purchased  a  farm  at  Bluff- 
dale,  which  was  ever  after  his  home. 

Mr.  Russell  joined  the  Baptist  church  at  \'ergennes, 
Vt..  ill  1816;  he  was  licensed  as  a  ireacher  Feb.  9.  1833, 
but  it  does  not  appear  that  he  ever  assumed  the  duties  of 
the  ministerial  profession.  He  was  editor  of  the  "Ad- 
vertiser." Louisville.  Kv.,  1841-2,  and  principal  of  Spring 
Hilt  Academy,  at  Louisiana,  Mo.,  1843-50. 

The  additional  publications  by  Dr.  Kussell  are  ;  "The 
Serpent  Uncoiled,  or  a  full  length  Viewof  I'niversalism." 
1841,  Svo,  pp.  127:  "The  Momoners,"  8vo,  pp.  250;  also, 
•'Little  Granite,"  "Allin  Wade."  '  Lame  Isaac,"  "Going 
to  Mill,'  "Ellenwood.  the  Outlaw,"  "Piasa,"  and  the 
"Spectre  Hunter." 

Gov.  Ford  in  his  history  of  Illinois  speaks  of  Mr.  Rus- 
sell as  "a  man  of  genius  and  a  fine  writer;"  Gov.  John 
Reynolds  of  Illinois  in  his  "My  Own  Times."  devotes  pp. 
436' to  440  to  Mr.  Russell. 

Dr.  Kussell  received  the  honorary  LL.  V>.  from  the 
University  of  Chicago.  18*2;  he  was  a  liberal  contributor 
to  the  Chicago  Historical  Society,  and  his  name  appears 
frequently  in  its  proceedings,  and  at  his  death  a  liberal 
portion  of  his  books  and  papers  were  deposited  with  that 
Society.  He  held  a  distinguished  rank  in  Illinois  in  ed- 
ucational and  literary  circles  ;  he  was  the  first  president 
of  Shurtlefl' College, at  .-Mton,  III  ,  for  one  year,  1831-2;  at 
the  orgiuiization  of  "Illinois  College"  at  Jncksonville  in 
1832,  Professor  Russell  was  prevailed  upon  to  deliver  the 
inaugural  address  in  Latin. 

Mr.  Russell  was  sometime  editor  of  the  "Backwoods- 
man," a  newspaper  at  Grafton,  III.;  most  of  his  later  pub- 
lications, whether  in  book  form  or  in  magazines  and 
newspaiiers,  were  published  anonymously. 

Rev.  Dr.  J.  M.  Peck  of  Illinois,  on  a  visit  to  New  York, 
procured  the  publication  of  a  email  volume  for  Prof.  Rus- 
sell, which  was  stereotyped  and  had  a  large  circulation, 
but  the  publishers  never  knew  the  name  of  the  author. 

Prof.  Russell's  "  Piasa."  written  lor  an  Eastern  Maga- 
zine, ran  rapidly  through  the  American  press,  and  about 
three  years  later  it  appeared  in  a  French  periodical, 
bearing  the  name  of  a  Frenchman  who  had  traveled  in

Mi.  Safford  was  born  in  Royalton,  Vt.,  Feb.  lo,  1810; 
died  at  Belmont,  Mass.,  Nov.  7,  1880.  Bred  a  farmer, 
without  the  advantages  of  a  liberal  education,  he  de- 
veloped decided  literary  tastes,  and  was  an  earnest 
student  in  search  of  knowledge.  Intrusted  in  early  life 
with  the  confidence  of  his  townsmen,  he  filled  various 
positions  of  trust  in  their  gift,  and  as  a  member  of  the 
Legislature  was  the  author  and  advocate  of  the  law  giv- 
ing fugitive  slaves  the  right  of  trial  by  jury.  He  was  the 
author  of  many  beautiful  sketches  under  the  title  of  the 
"Distinguished  Dead  of  Mt.  Auburn."  At  one  time  he 
projected  and  edited  a  little  sheet,  "The  Mt.  Auburn 
Memorial."

Mr.  Safford,  Mathematician  and  Astronomer,  was  born 
in  Royalton,  Vt.,  January  6,  1836;  graduated  at  Harvard 
University,  1854.  His  youthful  precocity  was  remark- 
able: in  his  9th  year  he  could  multiply  four  figures  by 
four  figures  with  wonderful  rapidity  ;  his  first  almanac 
wras  prepared  in  1S45,  when  he  was  but  nine  and  a  half 
years  old.  At  the  age  of  14  he  astonished  the  world  by 
the  production  of  the  elliptic  elements  of  the  first  comet 
ofiS49.  Answers  to  the  longest  and  most  difficult  ques- 
tions, read  to  him  but  once,  were  usually  given  without 
effort  or  fatigue.  He  was  connected  with  the  Cambridge 
Observatory  from  March,  '\V6i,  to  December  28,  1865, 
when  he  was  appointed  Director  of  the  Chicago  Obser- 
vatory, which  position  he  still  holds  (1S80.)  After  the 
death  of  Professor  G.  P.  Bond,  in  February,  1865,  the  in- 
complete report  of  his  valuable  discoveries  was  written 
out  in  full  by  Mr.  Safford,  constituting  the  5th  vo'.ume  of 
the  "Annals  of  the  Observatory,"  Z))a*t''i£)/r/;OHa>v.  See

diffivrent  examinations  of  young  Safford,  and  notice  of 
his  life.

SANDERS,  DANIEL  CLARKE.  A  History 
of  the  Indian  Wars  with  the  first  settlers  of 
the  United  States,  particularly  in  New  Eng- 
land. Written  iu  Vermont.  "(Motto.)  Mont- 
pelier,  Vt. :  Published  by  Wright  and  Sibley. 
1812.  Wright  and  Sibley,  Printers.  18mo, 
pp.  319. 

This  is  one  of  the  best  written  Indian  histories  of  its 
period,  and  is  exceedingly  scarce,  on  account  of  a  bitter 
and  unjust  criticism,  wliich  caused  the  author  to  sup- 
press and  destroy  the  work  as  far  as  possible,  only  a  few 
copies  apparently  getting  into  circulation. 

The  late  Samuel  G.  Drake,  of  Boston,  said  to  the  writer, 
"This  book  of  Dr.  Sanders' is  infinitely  superior,  not  only 
in  a  literary  point  of  view,  but  iu  the  accuracy  of  its  his- 
torical facts,  to  Mr.  Henry  Trumbull's  work  upon  the 
same  subject,  and  issued  the  same  year." 

The  criticism  referred  to  appeared  in  the  "Literarv 
and  Philosophical  Repertory,"  No.  5,  1814,  a  periodicd'l 
published  at  Middlebury,  Vt.,  bv  "An  Association  of 
Gentlemen."  (See  Middlebun'.)  We  quote  a  few  pass- 
ages from  the  criticisms  of  these  "Gentlemen  :"  "To  ex- 
hibit all  that  is  incorrect,  and  groveling  and  affected  in 
style,  and  erroneous  and  puerile  and  paltry  in  sentiment, 
would  require  nn  inordinate  portion  of  our  work."  *  • 
"The  opinion  expressed  respecting  the  time  when  Chris- 
tianity may  successfully  be  disseminated  among  the  In- 
dians, is  the  opinion  of  the  modern  school  of  infidelity." 
•  *  "Butourmost  serious  ground  for  censure  against 
this  work  is  the  deadly  hostility  which  it  manifests 
against  the  religious  principles  of  the  fathers  of  New 
England."  •  "  "Not  more  rancorous  was  the  hatred 
of  Voltaire,  of  Hume  and  of  Gibbon  to  the  Gospel  of 
Christ,  than  that  which  our  author  displays  toward  cor- 
rect principles  of  religion."  etc.  •  •  "Our  author  has 
adopted  the  cant  of  every  licentious  advocate  of  infidelity 
and  irreligion,  and  of  every  unprincipled  and  djiring 
propagator  of  error,  and  impietv  and  guilt."  *  •  "But 
the  rancour  of  his  heart  is  not  satisfied."  •  "  "What 
is  actually  the  intention  of  the  author  of  this  book, 
whether  to  aid  the  cause  of  infidelity  and  open  irreligion, 
or  simply  to  aim  a  blow  at  orthodoxv,  it  is  impossible  for 
us  to  determine."  •  •  "That  parent  we  cannot  but  de- 
clare lost  to  his  duty  who  allows  the  "History  of  the  In- 
dian Wars"  to  be  within  the  reach  of  hischildren,  tocor- 
rupt  their  principles  and  poison  their  minds,  and  to  lay 
the  foundation  of  their  irreligion  and  guilt,  of  their  mis- 
ery and  perdition.  We  give  a  few  of  the  passages  in  Dr. 
Siinders'  hook  quoted  by  this  critic,  and  which  appear  to 
him  so  objectionable  : 

"Even  the  food  Christians  of  New  England,  with  all 
their  faith  in  the  doctrine  of  disintei  ested  benevolence, 
sold  those  Indians  whom  they  took  in  war  as  slaves  to 
the  West  Indies."— Page  204.

"Rhode  Island,  not  being  deemed  sufficiently  orthodox 
on  tenets  much  agitated  in  those  days,  was  not  usually 
invited  to  join  the  holy  bands  in  the  wars  against  the 
savages  ;  Connecticut  raised  her  quota  of  190  men.  plac- 
ed under  the  conduct  ol  Capl.  .Mason  ;  aboutGo  Mohe^ans 
and  200  Narragaiisetis  were  permitted  without  uny  x.^- 
ligious  scruples,  to  join  on  the  way  in  Ihese  holy  cru- 
sades. The  troops  from  Massachusetts  did  not  arrive  in 
season  for  the  main  action,  having  been  detained  by  dis- 
putes and  discussions  concerning  the  covenant  of  grace 
and  works,  a  controversy  introduced  by  the  celebrated 
Mrs.  Aime  Hutchinson,  a  zealous  antinomian  of  Boston, 
who  was  banished  for  her  opinions  l>y  the  meek  and  be- 
nevolent Christians  and  Clertty  of  that  colony,  Hud  sent 
near  New  Haven  among  the  Indians,  whosoon  murdered 
belli  her  and  her  numerous  family." — Page  43-44. 

"Though  we  call  the  savages  cruel,  yet  their  cruelties 
are  tender  mercies  compared  with  the  atrocities  of  the 
very  foumlers  of  New  England,  when  in  1676  they  tried 
and  executeil  by  English  laws,  the  Indians  wlio  had  sur- 
rendered with  views  of  being  safe,  at  least  in  their  per- 
sons." 

"The  English  troops  were  very  orthodox,  no  doubt; 
but  their  wild  excesses  are  to  be  deeply  regretted;  and 
it  must  be  allowed  by  all  that  their  barbarities  were 
someliraes  such  as  to  make  them  difler  very  little  in 
character  from  that  of  the  savages  themselves;  and  if 
christians  could  conduct  as  these  did,  what  more  could 
intidels  do?  Orthodox  creeds  do  not  always  sanctify  the 
heart  and  conduct."— Page  so. 

Possibly  the  sentiments  advanced  by  Dr.  Sanders  were 
some  fifty  years  in  advance  of  his  time,  but  we  surmise 
that  the  savage  attacks  upon  him  by  the  "Gentlemen"  of 
Middlebury  were  instigated  by  envy  and  jealousy  towards 
the  University  of  Vermont,  of  which  Dr.  Sanders  was 
President. 

The  -'Indian  Wars*'  of  Dr.  Sanders'  was  surreptitious- 
ly reprinted  by  an  enterprising  printer  at  Rochester,  N. 
v.,  in  1825,  omitting  chapter  27,  12  pages,  which  treats 
of  the  morality,  virtues  and  vices  of  the  Indians,  and 
with  the  addition  of  accounts  of  the  battles  of  General 
Jack^on,  with  the  following  title  : 

"A  history  of  the  Indian  wars  with  the  first  settlers  of 
the  United  States  to  the  commencement  of  the  late  war. 
Toaelher  with  an  appendix  not  before  added  to  this 
history,  containing  interesting  accounts  of  battles  fought 
by  Gen.  Andrew  Jackson,  with  two  plates."  Rochester^

The  following  auto-biographical  sketch  was  furnished 
by  Dr.Sawyei,  under  date  of  March  25,  1878  : 

I  was  bornjin  the  town  of  Reading,  Windsor  county, 
Vt.,  on  the  9th  of  January,  1804.  My  father,  ilenjamin 
Sawyer,  was  a  respectable  farmer,  of  moderate  means, 
to  whom  my  mother,  Sally  York,  bore  twelve  children, 
nine  of  whom  grew  up  to  adult  age,  and  of  whom  five 
are  still  living,  and  among  whom,  at  the  age  of  seventy- 
four  years,  I  now  occupy  the  middle  point,  two  boys 
older  and  two  younger.  My  father  was  one  of  the  earli- 
est settlers  of  the  town,  having  removed  with  his  father's 
family  from  Pomfret,  Conn,,  in  company  with  Deacon 
John  Weld,  our  school  district  and  neighborhood  was 
known  as  the  Sawyer  neighborhood,  as  originally  four 
brothers  and  two  sisters  settled  in  it. 

I  enjoyed  very  good  advantages  for  acquiring  a  com- 
mon school  education,  as  we  always  had  six  months 
school  in  the  district  every  year.  At  the  age  of  eighteen 
years  I  had  acquired  such  a  mastery  of  the  branches 
thentaught  in  such  schools  as  to  become  a  teacher  my- 
self. After  I  began  to  teach  I  also  began  to  take  a  few 
weeks  tuition  at  Chester  Academy,  in  the  autumn,  after 
the  harvest  was  over.  I  entered  Middlebury  College  in 
the  autumn  of  1825,  and  graduated  in  1829,  having  com- 
pleted my  preparation  after  I  was  twenty-one. 

As  we  had  no  theological  schools  then,  I  went  to  study 
with  Rev.  William  S.  Balch,  in  Winchester,  N.  H., 
preaching  occasionally,  reading  the  Iliad  of  Homer,  and 
studying  such  theology  as  1  had  opportunity  to  find.

In  April,  1830,  I  went  to  New  York,  and  took  pastoral 
charge  of  a  very  small  society  there.  With  this  1  con- 
tinued till  the  autumn  of  1S45,  when  I  remo\'cd  with  my 
family  to  Clinton,  Oneida  county.  N.  V.,  and  took  charge 
of  the  Clinton  Liberal  Institute.  I  succeeded  in  con- 
vertingthis  into  a  Universalist  school,  and  opened  m 
connection  with  it  a  primitive  theological  school,  from 
which  I  sent  out  about  five  and  twenty  students,  more 
than  twenty  of  whom  are  still  in  our  ministrj',  among 
whom  I  beg  to  name  Prof.  Leonard,  Kev.  C.  A.  Skinner, 
Kev.  B.  K.  Bowles.  Clark  R.  Moor,  George  H.  Deere, 
Kichard  Eddy.  etc. 

At  the  close  of  is^2  I  returned  to  New  York,  and,  hav- 
ing preached  for  what  was  formerly  called  the  Dry  Dock 
Society  a  year,  1  returned  to  my  old  parish,  and  con- 
tinued with  it  till  the  spring  of  1861,  when  I  resigned, 
and  returned  toCllulon,  where  I  remained,  preaching 
for  the  parish  there  till  January  i,  1S63,  when  I  again  re- 
turned to  New  \'ork,  and  look  editorial  charge  of  the 
"Christian  Ambassador."  This  paper  was  founded  by 
Philo  Price  in  1831,  under  the  name  of  "Christian  Mes- 
senger," and  I  was  the  theological  editor  of  it  for  sev- 
eral years.  Indeed,  I  was  more  or  less  connected  with  it 
till  I  left  New  \'ork  in  1845,  and  wrote  for  it  as  I  had 
opportunity  afterwards.  It  passed  under  several  names, 
as  "Christian  Messenger,"  "Universalist  Union," 
"Christian  Ambassador,"  and  is  now  published  at 
Utica.  N.  v.,  as  the  "Christian  Leader,"  (since  moved 
to  Boston,  Mass.)  I  continued  to  editthis  paper  tlirough 
1863  and  1864,  and  was  associate  editor  through  1S65, 

In  the  autumn  of  1S65  I  moved  my  family  to  Star  Land- 
ing, N.  J.,  and  took  possession  of  a  farm  which  I  hud 
purchased.  Here  I  remained,  working  on  my  farm  and 
preacning  occasionally  in  the  neighborhood,  till  the 
autumn  of  1S69,  when  I  came  to  College  Hill,  Mass.,  and 
assumed  the  duties  of  Professor  of  Systematic  Theology 
in  thisschool.  to  which  I  had  been  elected. 

I  called  at  my  own  motion  the  educational  convention 
which  was  held  in  New  York  in  the  spring  of  1847,  which 
resulted  ia  the  establishment  of  Tuft's  College,  of 
which  I  was  one  of  the  original  Trustees  I  was  also 
chieHy  instrumental  in  calling  the  first  meeting  in  New 
York  city  to  consider  the  necessity  of  establishing  a 
theological  school,  which  resulted  in  the  founding  of 
the  "Canton  Theological  Scliool,"  and  the  "St.  Law- 
rence Universit>',"  of  which  I  was  also  one  of  the  origi- 
nal Trustees,  and  for  several  years  President  of  the 
Board.  I  received  the  Honorary  Degree  of  S.  T.  D.  at 
Cambridge,  in  1850. 

The  books  which  I  have  written,  and  which  have  been 
published,  are  as  far  as  I  can  now  recollect,  as  follows  :

His  first  volume  ot  poems  was  published  in  1849,  to 
which  he  makes  allusion  in  a  letter  to  his  friend  and 
brother  poet,  Major  Charles  G.  Eastman,  dated  High- 
gate,  December  ii.  1849:  "1  too  have  made  a  book,  and 
I  drop  you  this  line  to  say  that  the  very  special  copy 
which  1  intend  for  you,  one  of  the  few  extra  bound  tor 
the  author,  has  not  yet  come  to  hand.  When  it  does,  I 
shall  take  the  first  opportunity  to  get  it  into  your  hands." 
etc.  Major  Eastman  had  published  a  volume  of  his 
poems  in  1848.  In  another  of  Mr.  Saxe's  letters  to  Major 
Eastman,  dated  Burlington,  May  31,  1859,  he  says: 
"When  you  come  to  the  State  Convention,  I  want  you  to 
come  directly  to  my  house,  and  stop  with  me.  If  you 
bring  your  wife,  so  much  the  better.  Like  Dogberry,  I 
have  two  gowns,  one  for  you,  and  everything  comfortable 
about  me,  and  you  shan't  suffer  in  my  hospitium.  More- 
over, you  shall  be  'well  let  alone' — come  and  go  as  you 
like,  and  put  your  feet  on  things  in  the  best  room  in  the 
house.  Remember  what  I  say,  and  come  down— it  is 
down — the  day  before,"  etc. 

More  than  forty  editions  of  Mr.  Saxe's  Collected  Poems 
have  been  Issued  in  America  and  England. 

Mr.  Saxe  died  at  Albany,  N.  Y.,  March  31,  18S7.

Hon.  Henry  K.  Slayton  was  born  in  Calais,  August  29, 
1825  ;  married  Eliza  A.  Mitchell,  of  Manchester,  N.  H., 
in  1850,  by  whom  he  had  one  son,  Edward  M,;  he  was 
educated  in  the  common  schools  of  Calais  and  the  Mont- 
pelier Academy.  He  taught  school  two  winters,  then 
went  to  Boston  at  the  age  of  i8,  and  served  as  a  clerk 
three  years,  when  he  returned  to  Calais  and  opened  a 
country  store,  in  which  business  he  contiiuied  until  1863, 
when  he  moved  to  Manchester.  N.  H.,  where  he  estab- 
lished a  wliolesale  produce  and  provision  business  in 
1S64.  in  which  he  was  succeeded  by  his  son  in  the  spring 
of  1873. 

Mr.  Slayton  has  given  much  attention  to  politics;  for- 
merly a  Democrat  in  the  nearly  unanimous  Democratic 
town  of  Calais  until  the  "'free  soil"  invasion  in  1848,  he 
was  a  delegate  to  the  first  republican  National  Conven- 
tion in  ia56  at  Philadelphia,  and  an  alternate  to  the  Chi- 
cago  Convention  in  i860;  was  Town  Representative  from 
Calais  in  1858  9.  and  a  Representative  in  the  New  Hamp- 
shire Legislature  from  Ward  3,  Manchester,  in  1871-2; 
in  the  State  Senate  from  Manchester.  1877-78,  and  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Constitutional  Con\enlion  in  1876. 

He  made  a  trip  to  Cuba  in  1S63.  and  thence  to  New  Or- 
leans, where  he  wholesaled  dry  goods.  In  1873  he  made 
an  extended  trip  to  England,  Scotland,  and  the  Continent 
of  Europe,  attending  the  World's  Fair  at  Vienna,  on  his 
route. 

Mr.  Slayton  published  many  able  articles  in  newspapers 
in  advocacy  of  a  specie  basis,  and  was  the  author  of  the 
"hard  money"  resolutions  which  passed  thi-  New  Hamp- 
shire and  Vermont  Legislatures  in  1S78,  and  of  the  reso- 
lution in  relation  to  the  "Bland  Silver  bill"  which  was 
passed  by  the  Vermont  Legislature  in  the  same  year.

Mrs.  Smith  is  a  native  of  St.  Albans,  Vt.,  being  a  daugh- 
ter of  the  late  Hon.  Lawrence  Brainard;  she  married  Kk- 
Governor  J.  Gregory  Smith,  who  is  a  son  of  the  late  Hon. 
John  Smith,  noticed  above,  and  well  known  throughout 
the  country  in  connection  with  his  successful  manage- 
ment of  large  railroad  interests  in  Vermont.  Mrs.  Smith 
is  a  lady  of  almost  marvelous  industry  and  perseverance, 
not  only  in  connection  with  general  literature,  and  the 
pre-historic  condition  of  the  earth  and  its  inhabitants, 
for  she  has  said  that  she  knows  comparatively  little  this 
side  of  the  flood  ;  but  her  active  influence  pervades  all 
the  affairs  of  life,  and  she  is  pre-eminent  in  her  house- 
liold  as  wife  and  mother. 

In  1S64  Mis.  Smith  addressed  circulars  to  Vermonters, 
asking  aid  for  a  National  Fair  at  Washington.  D.  C  ,  for 
the  purpose  of  stimulating  enlistment  in  the  District  of 
Columbia  for  the  Civil  War.  Her  appeal  was  successful, 
and  her  method  and  form  were  adopted  in  the  other 
States.  As  a  member  of  the  "  Women's  Centennial  Ex- 
ecutive Committee,"  and  "Manager  for  Vermont,"  she 
issued  in  1R76  three  stirring  circulars  addressed  to  the 
ladies  of  Vermont  in  the  interest  of  the  "Women's  De- 
partment "  of  the  Centennial  Exposition  at  Philadelphia, 
through  which  means  about  twenty-five  hundred  dollars 
was  raised. 

In  1S64  Mrs.  Smith  achieved  distinction  in  connection 
with  the  famous  "St.  Albans  Raid,"  and  through  the  late 
Adjutant  General  and  Ex-Gov  P.  T.  Washburn  slie  holds

tlie  murder  of  Joseph  Smith,  At  the  Carthage 
Jail,  on  the  27th  day  of  June,  184-4.     12mo,  pp. 
44.     n.  p.  n.  d. 
Verdict,  not  guilty. 

The  Mormon,  Joe  Smith,  was  born  in  Sharon,  Vt.,  De- 
cember 23,  1S05,  and   was  treacherously  murdered  in  jail 

by  a  mob  at  CarthaKC.  Hancock  County.  lU.June  27,  1H44, 
in  defiance  of  promised  protection  by  Governor  Tbotnas 
Ford.  The  parents  of  Joe  Smith  were  obscure  and  poor, 
anti  when  he  was  ten  years  of  age.  the  family,  consisting 
of  the  parents  and  nine  children,  moved  to  I'almyra,  N. 
v.,  where  Mornionism  was  developed.  Of  the  Book  of 
Mormon  we  have  ^;athtred  the  followiuK  facts  from  vari- 
ous sources,  but  larc^ely  from  information  communicated 
by  J.  II.  Gilbert,  published  in  the  "  Detroit  Post  and  Trib- 
une "  of  December  2,  1^77.  Mr.  Gilbert  is  a  printer,  and 
was  formerly  proprietor  of  the  "Sentinel  "  at  Palmyra; 
he  set  the  type  and  printed  the  first  edition  of  the  "Mor- 
mon lhble,"and  preserved  for  himself  a  cojjy  in  sheets, 
which  IS  still  in  his  possession.  The  book  is  a  quarto  of 
5S0  pages,  the  contents  divided  into  chapters,  broken  into 
frequent  paragraphs,  but  the  verses  were  not  numbered, 
as  in  the  later  editions  Upon  the  title  page  appears  the 
name  of  "Joshua  Smith  "  as  "Author  and  Proprietor." 
In  subsequent  editi<ms  he  appears  simply  as  "  Translator, 
or  Author."  This  change  was  rendered  necessary  to  car- 
ry out  the  theory  afterward  adopted,  that  Smith  dug  up 
the  plates  containing  hieroglyphics,  and  translated  them 
by  means  of  a  pair  of  supernatural  spectacles.  Mr.  Gilbert's 
narrative  continues  ;  "  One  pleasant  day  in  the  summer 
of  1S29.  Hiram  Smith,  Joe's  Brother,  came  to  the  office  to 
negotiate  for  the  printing  of  a  book;  the  arrangements 
were  completed;  five  thousand  copies  were  to  be  printed 
for  J3, 000,  a  well-to-do  farmer  named  Martin  Harris,  liv- 
iug  in  the  neighborhood,  becoming;  security,  by  giving  a 
mortgage  upon  his  farm,  through  which  in  the  end  he 
was  ftuancially  ruined."  The  work  was  at  once  com- 
menced, occupying  about  eight  months,  Mr.  Gilbert  sc-t- 
tiug  all  the  type,  except  jp  or  40  pages,  and  doing  all  the 
press  work  on  a  hand  press.  '*The  copy  was  brought  to 
the  office  by  Hiram  Smith,  written  on  foolscap  paper,  in 
a  good,  clear  hand.  The  handwriting  was  Oliver  Cow- 
dery's,  and  not  a  punctuation  mark  in  the  entire  manu- 
script. The  sentences  were  run  in  without  capitals  or 
other  marks  to  designate  where  one  left  ofTor  another  be- 
gan, and  it  was  no  easy  task  to  straighten  out  the  stuff." 
Mr.  Ciilbert,  discovering  that  large  portions  were  stolen 
Iroiu  the  Bible,  verbatim,  used  to  have  a  copy  of  the  same 
on  his  case  to  aid  him  in  decipherintf  and  punctuating 
the  work.  At  first  Smith  brought  to  the  office  every  day 
just  enough  copy  for  that  day,  but  finally,  for  the  greater 
convenience  of  the  printer,  was,  aflcr  much  urging,  in- 
duced to  bring  a  qmre  at  a  time,  the  copy  being  taken 
away  by  Smith  as  fast  as  the  priuter  was  through  witli 
it.  Mr.  Gilbert  speaksof  Joe  Smith  as  a  lazy,  gootl-for- 
uothing  lout,  chiefly  noted  for  his  capacity  to  hang 
around  a  corner  groc'eiy,  and  punish  poor  whiskey.  He 
was  a  "water  witch,"  and  had  a  luagic  stone,  througti 
which  lie  pretended  to  discover  hidden  treasure,  and  half 
the  boys  in  Palmyra  were  digging  pits  afler  pots  of  gold, 
some  of  which  pits  are  still  pointed  out  to  visitors.  By 
the  magic  powers  of  this  stone  he  discovered  the  Mor- 
mon plates,  and  translated  them  by  means  of  magic  or 
suwrnatural  spectacles;  he  dictoted  the  book  concealed 
behind  a  curtain,  audit  was  written  down  by  Cowdery. 
This  course  seemed  necessary  by  the  fact  that  Smith 
could  not  write. 

It  is  now  prett>^  well  established  that  the  "Book  of 
Mormon"  was  written  in  1809  to  1812  by  Solomon  Spald- 
ing, a  Presbyterian  preacher,  as  a  popular  religious  ro- 
mance. He  sent  it  to  Pittsburgh,  where  it  lay  in  a  print- 
ing odice  several  years,  he  not  being  able  to  raise  the 
money  to  secure  tiie  printing  of  it,  and  after  his  death  it 
was  returned  to  his  widow,  about  1824. 

By  some  means,  not  known,  it  fell  into  the  hands  of 
Sitlney  Rigdon,  who  with  Joe  Smith  concocted  the 
scheme  by  which  it  was  subsequently  brought  out  as  the 
work  of  Smith,  the  dealings  with  the  outside  world  being 
manipulated  by  Hiram,  an  elder  brother  of  Joe  Smith.

period,  consult  "Autobiography  of  Joseph  Smith,"  J.  B.

As  the  Rev.  Solomon  Spalding's  connection  with  the 
Mormon  Hible  is  of  interest,  we  condense  an  account  of 
him  from  the  "Dartmouth  Alumni,"  p.  39:  Mr.  S]>ald- 
ing  was  born  in  Ashford,  Conn.,  in  1761,  and  died  at  Am- 
ity.WashiugtouCo.Pa.. in  i8i6.  He  was  graduated  at  Dart- 
mouth iu  17S5,  read  theology,  and  preached  tu  Couuectl* 


cut  ei^ht  or  ten  years,  when  poor  health  compelled  him 
to  retire  from  the  ministry.  Iu  1795  he  was  married,  and 
soon  after  went  into  business  with  hi?brother  Josiah.  iu 
Cherry'  Valley,  N.  Y.,  and  in  1799  the  firm  moved  to  Rich- 
field, N.  v.,  and  purchased  large  tracts  of  land  iu  Penn- 
sylvania and  Ohio,  to  superintend  which  Solomon  moved 
to  Salem,  Ohio,  but  the  war  of  1812  deranged  their  plans, 
and  caused  great  losses.  Josiah,  then  visiting  his  broth- 
er, found  him  in  poor  health  and  low  spirits,  writing  a 
work  of  fiction,  suggested  by  the  opening  of  a  mound  in 
which  were  discovered  some  human  bones,  and  some  rel- 
ics indicative  of  a  former  civilization.  He  entitled  his 
work  a  "Manuscript  Found,"  and  in  it  imagined  the  for- 
tunes of  the  extinct  people.  Josiah  left  him  thus  em- 
ployed. Not  long  alter,  probably  in  1814,  Solomon  went 
to  Pittsburgh,  Penn.,  where  he  was  followed  by  Sidney 
Rigdon,  then  a  printer,  and  afterwards  a  noted  Mormon. 

Rigdon  told  his  employer  of  Spalding's  novel,  who  bor- 
rowed the  manuscript,  and  otVered  to  print  it,  which  was 
refused,  and  the  author  wandered  to  Amity,  the  place  of 
his  death.  His  widow  returned  to  New  York  with  the 
manuscript,  and  while  absent  from  home  a  stranger  call- 
ed upon  her  and  desired  to  examine  it,  that  he  might 
confirm  or  refute  a  current  report  iu  the  West  that  it  had 
become  the  Mormon  Bible.  She  permitted  him  to  ^  isit 
her  house,  and  obtain  it  from  a  certain  chest;  he  went, 
and  reported  that  he  could  not  find  it,  and  Mrs.  Spalding 
never  saw  it  afterwards.  The  supposition  is  that  Kigdon 
copied  the  work  at  Pittsburg,  and  that  the  stranger  pur- 
loined the  original  to  avoid  a  future  exposure. 

The  story  iu  the  "Dartmouth  Alumni"  was  embodied 
from  a  letter  written  by  the  brother,  Josiah  Spalding,  in 
January,  1S55,  and  although  his  account  differs  in  some 
minor  particulars  frnm  that  of  Mr.  Gilbert,  yet  the  two 
strcngthed  each  other  as  to  the  main  facts.

1835.     8vo,  pp.  32. 

Mr.  Spooner  was  born  at  Brandon,  Vt.,  in  1S09 ;  His 
father,  Paul  Spooner,  who  early  in  Hie  settled  in  Bran- 
don, was  a  nephew  of  Lieut. -Gov.  Paul  Spooner,  who 
settled  early  in  Hartland,  Vt.,  where  he  died  September 
5.  17S9  ;  he  was  prominent  in  the  early  history  of  Ver- 
mont. His  son  Paul  settled  in  Hard  wick,  Vt.,  and  was 
Representative,  etc. 

The  historians  of  Vermont,  down  to  and  including  Mr. 
Walton  in  Vol.  i.  of  the  Governor  and  Council,  have 
treated  Lieut  -Gov.  Paul  and  his  son  Paul  as  one  and  the 
same  person;  the  appearance  of  the  "Spooner  Memorial" 
in  1S71,  set  the  matter  ritrht.  and  Mr.  Walton  made  the 
proper  correction  in  Vol.  2,  p.  498,  of  the  Governor  and 
Council. 

Dr.  Shearjashub  Spooner  received  his  crooked  name 
from  his  grandfather  of  the  same  name,  who  lived  and 
died  in  Petersham,  i\Iass. ;  born  August  14,  1735,  died 
April  25,  17S5;  he  was  the  fourth  child  of  Deacon  Daniel 
and  Elizabeth  (Ruggles)  Spooner,  nnd  Lieut. -Gov.  Paul 
Spooner  was  the  tenth  and  last  child  of  the  same,  having 
been  born  March  30,  1746.  Deacon  Daniel  was  twice 
married  subsequent  to  his  first  marriage,  viz.,  in  1767  and 
17.S0. 

This  branch  of  the  Spooner  family  was  prolific  ;  eight 
of  Deacon  Daniel's  ten  children  had  sixty-two  children 
in  the  aggrigate,  while  of  the  other  two  one  died  young, 
and  the  other  was  married  but  had  no  children. 

The  subject  of  our  sketch,  Dr.  Shearjashub  Spooner, 
was  a  dentist  of  distinction,  graduated  an  M.  D.  from  the 
College  of  Physicians  and  Surgeons  of  New  York,  1S35; 
Allibone  says  he  was  graduated  at  Middlebury  College, 
1830.  but  his  name  docs  not  appear  in  Pearson's  list  of 
graduates.  He  practiced  dentistry  with  great  success  in 
New  York  until  1S5S,  when  he  retired  to  Plainfield,  N.  J., 
where  he  died  in  1S59.

Dr.  Spooner  purchased  and  restored  the  plates  of,  and 
reissued,  "Boydell's  Shakespeare  Gallery,"  at  Jioo  for 
the  100  plates  ;  and  purchased  with  the  object  of  restor- 
ing and  engraving  from,  the  plates  of  the  "Muste  F"ran- 
caise,"  which  in  consequence  of  the  refusal  of  the  Gov- 
ernment to  remit  the  import  duty,  were  returned  to 
France— the  ^Doctor  losing  the  purchase  money  .  He 
contributed  professional  and  other  articles  to  periodicals. 

Four  of  Dr.  Spooner's  brothers  became  eminent  as 
physicians.

Miss  Sprague  was  chiefly  known  as  a  trance  lecturer 
under  what  .^he  claimed  lo  be  spirit  influence, —  a  pio- 
neer advocate  of  the  "Spiritual"  philosophy  in  New  Eng- 
land. She  was  born  m  Vermont.  Her  youth  was  one 
long  struggle  with  poverty.  Remarkable  from  hereailiest 
yi-ars  for  an  eager  thirst  for  knowledge,  the  circumstan- 
ces of  her  father's  family  forbade  any  save  the  most  lim- 
ited gratification  to  her  ruling  desire.  Achsa  was  the 
sixth  child  of  a  large  family.  She  attended  the  public 
school  until  she  was  twelve  years  of  age,  when  she  began 
teaching.  At  twenty  she  was  prostrated  by  a  sickness 
which  lasted  seven  years,  and  was  restored,  as  claimed, 
by  spirit  aid.  By  the  advice  of  spirit  friends  she  began 
public  lecturing  at  South  Reading,  Vt.,  in  1854,  and  con- 
tinued in  the  field  of  reform  as  a  trance  lecturer  till  she 
passed  on  at  I'lymouth.Vt.,  July  6,  :862. 

She  was  a  rapid  writer  of  poetry,  usually  under  ''Spirit 
inspiration,"  sometimes  writing  five  hundred  lines  at  a 
single  effort.  They  contain  many  beautiful  thoughts  of 
the  future  life.  Her  public  addresses  were  characterized 
by  intense  earnestness  and  vivid  word  painting.  Wher- 
ever she  went  she  made  hosts  of  friends.

jects, &c.,  by  Saintiel  Stearns.  London:  1791. 
8vo,  pp.  637,  xviii. 

t)r.  Stearns  was  born  at  Lancaster,  Mass.,  in  17^7  and 
became  a  prominent  man  during  the  Revolutionary  war, 
but  having  tiiry  proclivities  he  was  compelled  to  tly  to 
Englanti.  where  he  remained  until  after  the  end  of  the 
war.  While  thern  he  received  the  degree  of  LL.D.  and 
K.  R.  S.,  and  after  his  return  taught  astronomy  and  other 
higher  branches  ot  mathematics ;  the  late  Asa  Hough- 
ton, of  Putney,  Vt.,  who  published  so  many  almanacs, 
was  one  of  his  pupils.  In  the  latter  part  of  his  life  for  a 
while  he  was  incarcerated  in  Newfane,  Vt..  jail  for  debt. 
While  there,  he  wrote  a  poem  entitled  "  The  Widower 
in  Jail  Exposed  to  Sale,"  dated  July  15,  1786.  He  was 
much  soured  by  his  many  rebulTs  of  fortune.  He  was  a 
gentleman  worthy  of  kind  regards,  and  althougli  he  now 
sleeps  in  a  humble  ^rave,  his  memory  is  cherished  by 


the  few  relatives  and  appreciative  friends  who  still  sur- 
vive. A  tombstone  marks  his  grave  in  the  cemetery  at 
Brattleboro,  Vt.  Dr.  Stearns  prepared  the  first  Nauti- 
cal Almanac  that  was  published  in  this  country.  In  1772 
he  designed  publishing  an  American  Dispensatory,  and 
to  make  the  work  as  complete  and  useful  as  possible,  he 
traveled  in  nine  of  the  American  Slates  and  in  England, 
Scotland.  Ireland  and  P'rance.  In  a  journal  which  he 
kept  he  claims  that  he  traveled  11,607  miles  by  land  and 
11,578  miles  by  water.  He  intended  to  publish  his  Dis- 
pensatory in  two  large  volumes  by  subscription,  but  failed 
to  obtain  a  sufiicient  number  of  subscribers,  although 
George  Washington,  Beiij.  Rush  and  other  eminent  men 
were  subscribers.  He  made  an  ineffectual  effort  to  in- 
duce the  legislatures  of  Massachusetts  and  Vermont  to 
grant  him  a  lottery  whereby  he  might  realize  sufficient 
means  to  enable  him  to  publish  his  great  work.  Failing 
in  all  his  efforts  to  secure  the  publication  of  his  great 
work,  he  abbreviated  the  same  and  got  up  the  Avwrkait 
Herbal,  which  was  printed  at  Walpole.  N.  H.,  in  iSoi.  and 
entitled  the  American  Herbal  or  Materia  Meiiica.  While 
practising  medicine  in  the  town  of  Dummerston,  Vt.,  be 
wrote  a  dissertation  upon  the  practice  of  medicine,  but  it 
was  never  printed.  The  manuscript  wasin  possession  of 
the  late  Dr.  J.  A.  Allen,  when  he  resided  in  Brattleboro  ; 
it  indicated  more  than  ordinary  ability.

from  the  Introduction  to  Vol.  I-  gives  some  idea  of  the  nat- 
ure of  these  doctiments  : 

"My  first  Kroup  of  ti\e  volumes  is  made  from  unpub- 
lished documents  in  private  Archives  not  examined  by 
the  Royal  Commission  on  Historical  Maimscripts,  and 
this  material  is  now  for  the  first  time  placed  at  the  dis- 
posal of  historical  students.  They  open  two  important 
subjects— (a)  Secret  Intelligence,  and  (b)  Conciliatory 
Bills. 

The  confidential  antl  private  correspondence  of  the 
British  Government  with  its  iiolilical  agents  and  spies, 
includes  secret  and  intercepted  intelligence  from  the  time 
of  the  receipt  in  England  of  the  news  of  the  signing  of 
the  Declaration  of  Independence,  until  the  signing  of  the 
Paris  Treaty  of  Peace  in  lyS.v  Similar  secret  intelli^'cnce 
obtained  by  France,  Holland  and  Spain  through  their 
respective  agents  or  spies  is  also  intcuded  to  be  given. 
This  correspondence  is  absolutely  essential  to  a  clear  un- 
derstanding of  the  diplomatic,  political  and  military 
phases  of  the  Peace  Negotiations,  and  will  very  consider- 
ably modify,  and  sometimes  conllict  with,  current  opin- 
ions  of  persons  and  of  events. 

0(  equal  importance  are  the  papers  on  the  peculiarly 
interesting  conception  and  preparationof  Lord  North's 
two  Conciliatory  Bills  introduced  into  Parliament  in  Feb- 
ruary, 1778. 

Only  two  hundred  copies  are  being  made  and  the  pho- 
tographic negatives  are  destroyed  as  ihe  work  pro- 
gresses. 1  believe  no  facsimile  work  of  this  kind  and  of 
this  magnitude  has  ever  before  been  undertaken  either 
by  private  or  public  enterprise  for  enabling  stutlents  to 
practically  transfer  a  great  mass  of  important  historical 
material  to  their  own  libraries  for  examination  and 
comparison  at  their  leisure."

Franklin,  while  in  London,  working  as  a  compositor, 
at  the  age  of  eighteen  years,  wrote  and  printed  himself 
100  copies  of  this  tract.  Soon  after,  becoming  convinced 
of  his  error  in  printing  so  free  a  work,  he  informs  us 
that,  having  given  away  a  very  few  copies,  he  destroyed 
the  rest,  and  wrote  another  tract  refuting  this.  The 
present  is  a  reprint  of  one  of  the  two  copies  of  the  orig- 
inal edition  known  to  exist,  viz.  that  in  the  posession  of 
Mr.  Henry  Stevens.  It  was  reprinted  in  Uublin.  in  1733, 
in  sixteen  instead  of  thirty-two  pages,  but  only  a  single 
copy  of  the  Irish  edition  is  known,  belonging  to  Mr, 
Stevens*  Franklin  collection.

Edited  with  Epistle  Dedicatory  of  two  pages  to  Dr. 
Reinhold  Pauli.  from  the  original  manuscript  of  the  Sec- 
ond Admiral  of  the  Indies,  then  in  possession  of  Henry 
Stevens,  and  printed  at  the  Chiswick  Press.  The  young 
King  of  Spain,  Charles,  had  asked  Columbus  respecting 
the  benevolent  scheme  of  Las  Casas  for  civilizing  and 
christianizing  the  Indians  of  Terra  Kirma,  urging  the 
Admiral's  co-operation.  This  is  Don  Diego  Columbus' 
favorable  reply.  This  and  the  next  five  lots  form  an  in- 
teresting series  of  Spanish  historical  tracts,  printed  uni- 
formly in  black  letter,  similar  to  that  of  tlie  Las  Casas 
tracts  of  1552,  and  of  the  same  sized  page.  The  six  vol- 
umes are  all  bound  neatly  in  paste-grained  roan  of  six 
different  colors,  with  different  side  gold  ornaments,  and 
different  fancy  end  papers.  Only  100  copies  of  each  were 
printed,  and  sold  in  sets  only,  at  /"s,  3s.  net.

Las  Casas,  who  had  taken  great  interest  in  the  welfare 
and  christianizing  of  the  Indians,  had  been  promised  an 
extensive  grant  of  land  on  the  coast  of  Terra  Firma,  be- 
tween Darien  and  Trinidad,  fur  the  purpose  of  founding 
a  colony  for  improving  and  civilizing  the  natives.  In 
this  important  long  autograph  letter  he  repeats  his  re- 
quest to  Charles  the  B^ifth,  through  his  Chancellor,  and 
urges  his  benevolent  scheme.  It  was  printed  in  1S54  from 
the  original  autograph  manuscript  then  in  the  possession 
of  Mr.  Stevens.

Edited  by  Henry  Stevens,  of  Vermont,  in  1854,  and 
beautifully  printed  at  the  Chiswick  Press  in  black  letter, 
uniform  with  Las  Casas'  tracts  of  1552,  from  the  original 
unpublished  manuscript  then  in  his  possession.  The 
MS  is  not  dated,  but  was  probably  written  in  1554.  Ded-

First  privately  printed  from  the  original  manuscript  in 
1S54.  then  in  the  possession  of  Mr.  Stevens.  It  is  not 
dated,  but  was  manifestly  written  in  1541  or  1542,  when 
the  Emperor  and  Las  Casas  were  getting  up  the  famous 
New  Laws  of  the  Indifs,  printed  in  1543.  The  Emperor 
had  asked  Cortes'  advice  respecting  the  enconiiendas 
and  the  treatment  of  the  Indians  in  Mexico.  This  is  the 
conqueror's  sensible  reply.  The  volume  is  dedicated  in 
a  long  epistle  in  English  to  Leopold  von  Ranke,  the  his- 
torian, )n  which  is  given  an  abstract  of  the  important 
historical  document.

This  important  manu-script  was  edited  by  Henry  Stev- 
ens, and  privately  printed  for  him  at  the  Chiswick  Press 
in  1854.  from  the  original,  then  in  his  possession.  It  is 
dated  the  first  of  July,  1541.  Las  Casas  and  others  had 
complained  much  of  the  ill-treatment  and  slavery  of  the 
Indians  by  the  Spaniards  in  America,  until  finally 
Charles  V  referred  the  grand  question  to  the  faculty  of 
the  University  of  Salamanca,  whether  Indians  who  had 
been  baptized  could  be  made  slaves?  This  curious  docu- 
ment is  the  official  answer,  signed  by  the  Dean  and  all 
the  Faculty.  The  volume  has  a  lon^  explanatorj'  dedica- 
tion in  English,  to  Sir  Thomas  Phillips.

Storey,  Wilbur  F.  Tlie  Suppression  of  the 
Chicago  Times.     8vo,  pp.  32. 

This  is  a  history  of  one  of  the  most  indefensible  out- 
rages upon  the  freedom  of  the  Press,  and  the  rights  of 
the  people,  ever  perpetrated  in  this  country.  It  took 
place  about  four  o'clock  A.  M.,  June  3,  1S63,  at  which 
hour  a  military  mob  surrounded  the  office  of  the"Times,'* 
broke  down  the  doors,  and  stopped  the  press  when  about 
halfthe  morning  edition  of  the  paper  had  been  printed. 
The  mob  in  military  uniforms  of  the  United  States  seized 
the  printed  sheets,  carried  them  into  the  street,  tore  them 
to  pieces  and  trampled  them  under  their  feet.  As  stated 
by  Mr.  J.  F.  Joy.  in  his  argument  at  the  hearing  before 
Judges  David  Davis  and  Thomas  Druinmond,  both  of  the 
United  States  Court,  the  former  having  been  appointed 
by  President  Lincoln  in  1861  :  "In  a  state  wliere  the 
Courts  are  all  open,  the  people  all  quiet,  within  the  lim- 
its of  which  there  is  profound  peace,  where  no  semblance 
of  martial  law  or  the  occasion  for  auy  exists,  a  man  is 
found  dressed  with  the  brief  authority  of  a  Major  Gener- 
al, who  a  short  time  since  was  a  clerk  in  one  of  the  oflices 
of  this  city,  (Chicago)  never  distinguished  for  any  great 
wisdom  or  soundness  of  mind,  who  now  resolves  by  a 
military  order  to  assniuc  the  censorship  of  the  press— to 
try,  condemn  and  execute  its  conductors  without  the  in- 
tervention of  ('ourt  and  jury,  and  without  a  hearing  even 
—to  suspend  the  power  of  the  Constitution  and  the  laws. 
If  General  Burnside  m.ay  suppress  The  Chicago  Times,  he 
may  equally  suppress  every  other  paper  in  the  country." 
The  Older  of  General  A.  E.  Burnside  .suppressing  the 
Times  was  revoked  by  order  of  President  Lincoln,  June  4, 
before  the  conclusion  of  the  hearing  in  Court  on  the  in- 
junction granted  by  Judge  Drumraond  against  the  order 
of  Burnside,  which  ended  the  case  not  only  of  the  Times, 
but  ended  militarv  interference  with  the  freedom  of  the 
press  thereafter  'during  the  civil  war.  And  yet  the 
extra  sessiotl  of  Congress  in  1873  was  occupied  almost 
wholly  with  the  question,  whether  almost  any  obscure 
employe  of  whatever  kind  of  an  administration  of  the

General  Governmeiit  might  happen  to  be  iu  power, 
should  have  authority  to  order  the  militnry  of  the  United 
States  to  take  possession  of  the  polls  at  elections,  and 
thus  virtually  destroy  that  dearest  boon  of  freeilom,  the 
power  of  a  free  ballot. 

Mr.  Storey  was  born  in  Salisbury.  Vt.,  December  19, 
1S19.  His  family  is  a  collateral  branch  of  the  Story  fam- 
ily of  which  the  well  known  jurist  was  a  member.  The 
first  .ten  years  of  Mr.  Storeys  life  were  passed  upon  the 
farni  of  his  parents.  At  this  time  the  lamily  moved  to 
Middtebur>',  and  at  the  age  ot  eleven  years  ,Mr.  Storey 
went  into  the  office  of  the  "Middlebury  Free  Press,"  to 
learn  the  printing  Imsiness,  where  he  remained  uutil 
seventeen  years  of  age,  with  the  exception  of  a  single 
winter,  when  he  attended  the  village  school,  which,  with 
the  small  school  privileges  at  Salisbury,  were  all  the 
school  advantages  he  ever  enjoyed. 

At  the  close  of  his  appreutic<:ship  Mr.  Storey  had  saved 
$17,  to  which  his  mother  added  jio,  and  with  this  capital 
he  commenced  life  fur  liiinsclf.  Proceeding  to  New  York 
city,  he  secnrod  a  situatiou  as  compositor  on  the  "Journal 
oft  'ommerce,"  where  he  worked  at  the  case  a  ycaraud  a 
half.  when,  iu  the  spring  of  i8,^S,  he  determined  to  "Go 
West."  and  he  reached  I.aporte,  Ind.,  with  J250.  being 
his  savings  while  in  New  York.  I,earuing  that  the  Dem- 
ocrats of  Laporte  were  about  to  establish  a  newspaper, 
he  made  an  arraiigemcut  whereby  he  was  to  ruu  the 
mechanical  part  of  the  paper,  white  E.  A.  Hanuegau, 
subsequently  United  States  Senator,  was  a  volunteer  edi- 
tor. Soon  after,  when  Mr.  Storey  was  not  quite  nineteen, 
the  entire  control  of  the  paper  fell  into  his  hauds,  but  the 
times  were  unfavorable  and  the  enterprise  failed,  and  in 
the  ruins  was  buried  the  capital  saved  in  New  York.  He 
then  purchased  a  drug  store,  which  venture  was  also  a 
failure.  The  Democrats  of  Mishawaka  about  this  time 
started  the  "Tocsin,"  and  Mr.  Storey  went  over,  edited 
the  paper  a  year  and  a  half,  whcu  he  remo\'ed  to  Jack- 
son, Mich,  where  he  read  law  two  years,  and  then  started 
the  "Jackson  Patriot,"  which  soon  absorbed  the  other 
Democratic  paper  published  there.  At  the  end  of  a  year 
and  a  half  he  was  appoiuled  Postmaster  by  Polk.  He 
sold  the  P.itriot  on  beconiiug  Postmaster,  and  after  losing 
the  post  office  he  again  opened  a  drug  store,  adding  books 
and  stationery. 

While  in  Jackson  he  was  elected  to  the  Constitutional 
Convention  in  1S50  ;  he  also  acted  as  Inspector  of  the 
State  Prison  ;  but  editorial  aspirations  haunted  him.  and 
when  an  opportunity  offered  to  secure  a  sixth  interest  iu 
the  "Detroit  Free  Press"  he  availed  himself  of  it  and 
moved  to  Detroit  in  1S53.  At  this  time  the  "Free  Press" 
was  at  a  low  ebb,  not  paying  expenses,  but  Mr.  Story  in- 
fused such  energy  and  tact  iuto  the  business  that  lie  soon 
became  sole  proprietor.  In  eight  years  he  not  only  paid 
for  the  entire  concern,  but  accumulated  J.io.ooo  from  its 
earnings ;  for  nearly  all  this  periml  he  performed  the  en- 
tire editorial  labor  of  the  daily  and  other  editions.  lie 
was  the  first  man  at  the  office  in  the  morning,  and  he 
never  left  tintil  the  next  morning,  when  the  forms  were 
locked  ready  for  the  press.  It  was  not  uucommou  for 
him  to  lie  down  upon  his  table  at  four  o'clock  in  the  morn- 
ing, and  three  or  four  hours  later  be  ready  to  resume  the 
labors  of  the  day.  He  knew  every  detail  of  tlie  business 
management  and  ordered  the  disposition  of  every  hand- 
ful of  "matter"  as  it  went  into  the  "forms."  Having 
made  the  "Free  Press" all  that  could  be  made  of  a  news- 
paper in  Detroit,  he  sighed  for  more  worlds  to  conquer, 
and  iu  1861,  purchased  the  "Chicago  Times,"  which  was 
in  a  similar  condition  of  poverty  to  that  of  the  "Free 
Press"  lit  the  time  he  purchased  it. 

For  several  years  his  labors  and  life  in  Chicago  were  a 
close  repetition  of  what  they  had  been  in  Detroit.  Before 
he  brought  the  "Times"  up  to  his  standard,  and  made  it 
a  payitigconceru,  he  had  sunk  the  forty  thousand  dollars 
brought  from  Detroit, and  another  thirty  thousand  dollars 
provided  by  friends  ;  but  finally  he  made  the  "Times"  a 
great  success  fitiancially,  its  value  being  estimated  at  two 
millions  of  dollars. 

Although  Mr.  Storey  is  not  quite  sixty  years  old  (1S7R) 
the  vast  labor  he  has  performed  has  produced  its  effect ; 
hisabundaut  hair,  black  as  jet  wheu  he  went  to  Chicago, 
is  now  white  as  snow,  and  his  once  robust  constitution  is 
somewhat  exhausted.  He  has  been  three  times  married  ; 
nociiildren. 

Mr.  Storey  died  at  Chicago,  Oct.  27,  1884.

This  book  is  dedicated  to  the  people  of  the  Lamoille

was  banished  from  France,  and  his  daughter  Clemence, 
resided  in  the  valley  bearing  his  name  .  A  young  P'rench 
noble,  F"rancois  Du  Bois,  the  accepted  lover  i\i  Clemence 
in  France,  came  over  about  1755,  and  joined  his  regiment 
under  Uieskau.  Du  Bois  discovered  accidentally  the 
cabin  of  La  Moille  and  Clemence;  after  Dieskau's  final 
defeat  near  Lake  George,  Du  Bois  deserted  and  through 
an  Indian  guide,  Clemence  secreted  him  in  a  cave  in 
Poke  o'  .Moonshine  Mountain.  The  poems  contain  the 
story  in  full.

Mr.  Thompson  was  connected  with  Walton's  Register 
and  other  Almanacs,  1823,  until  his  death. 

Mr.  Thompson  was  born  in  Bridgewater,  Vt.,  May  29, 
1796,  and  died  at  Burlington,  January  19,  1856.  For 
sketches  of  his  life,  see  Drake's  Biographical  Dictionary; 
Geology,  Preliminary  Report,  by  Augustus  Young,  1856, 
Obituary  of  Prof.  Thompson,  pp.  37-47. 

Mr.  Thompson  devoted  the  entire  period  of  his  life  to 
the  interests  and  welfare  of  his  native  State,  and  his  la- 
bors are  more  gratefully  apiireciated  as  time  passes.  The 
best  monument  to  his  memory  is  his  works.  The  people 
of  Vermont  have  notpublicK'  manifested  that  gratitude  to 
the  memory  of  Mr.  Thompson  which  his  labors  merit; 
even  in  the  history  of  Burlington,  in  which  town  Mr. 
Thompson  passed  the  larger  part  of  his  life,  as  published 
in  Miss  Hemenway's  Gazetteer,  less  than  one  page  is  de- 
voted to  him. 

We  publish  at  the  expense  of  the  State  glowing  eulogies 
upon  our  ephemeral  politicians,  such  as  Members  of  Con- 
gress, etc.,  and  upon  our  military  heroes,  as  we  call  them, 
and  yet  the  services  of  such  men  as  Mr.  Thompson  will 
endure  in  the  grateful  memory  of  succeeding  generations 
long  after  the  other  classes  named  shall  have  passed  into 
ol>livlon,  and  be  remembered  no  more.

Mary,  wife  of  Chief  Justice  Royall  Tyler,  was  a  woman 
of  singular  beauty  and  richness  of  character  and  one  of 
the  ablest  among  the  many  educated  and  refined  women 
who  adorncil  the  earlier  history  of  our  State.  She  was 
born  in  Waterlown,  M.iss.,  in  1775.  Her  father,  Joseph 
Pearce  Palmer,  a  graduate  of  Harvard,  w'as  ijuartermas- 
ter-r,encral  of  the  army  bcseiging  tlielhitish  forces  in 
Boston,  until  its  re-organization  under  Washington,  who 
ollered  him  the  same  position  in  the  Continental  army, 
but  as  he  promoted  Gen.  Mifflin,  of  South  Car<dina,  over 
him,  Gen.  Palmer  felt  obliged  by  military  eticiuclle  to  re- 
sign. As  a  child  in  Cambridge  she  sat  at  the  table  with 
Gen.  Joseph  Warren  on  the  very  day  he  crossed  to  Hunker 
Hill  to  meet  his  death. 

Mrs.  Tyler  was  eighteen  years  younger  than  her  hus- 
band. Thoy  were  married  in  1794.  In  the  winter  of  96  he 
brought  his  wife  and  infant  son  to  Guilford,  wliere  and 
in  Brattleboro  they  resided  until  his  death,  in  l3jf>;  all 
lint  one  of  their  nine  sons  and  two  daughters  were  then 
living.  She  survived  her  husband  forty  years,  dying  in 
i8'»6,  having  completed  her  niuety-first  year. 

At  the  time  of  the  publication  of  "The  iMatenial  Phy-

This  was  the  first  play  in  which  the  Yjinkee  dialect  and 
story  telling,  since  so  common,  were  introduced;  it  was 
also  the  first  American  play  ever  acted  upon  a  regular 
stage  by  an  established  company.  Duyckinck,  in  his 
"Cyclopedia  of  American  Literature,"  says  the  "Con- 
trast" was  first  put  upon  the  stage  "at  the  old  John  Street 
Theatre  in  New  York,  under  the  management  of  Hallam 
and  Henry,  April  16,  17S6,''  and  that  the  author  gave  the 
copyright  to  the  principal  actor  in  the  piece,  Mr.  Wig- 
nell, who  published  it  by  subscription.  Duyckinck  ap- 
pears to  ha\e  obtained  his  information,  in  part  at  least, 
from  "Dunlap's  History  of  the  American  stage,"  jip.  72-3. 
J.  T.  Buckingham  in  his  "Reniiniscences,"  is  in  accord 
with  Duyckinck  and  Dunlap.

trast" was  written  in  the  winter  of  1788-9,  in  three  week's 
time,  as  is  stated  in  the  preface ;  that  it  was  brought  out

Mr.  Tyler  gained  great  reputation  by  his  contributions 
to  the  "  Farmer's  Weekly  Museum,"' pubhshed  at  Wal- 
pole, N.  H.,  by  Joseph  Dennie,  Mr.  Tyler  furnishing 
those  agreeable  and  humorous  articles  purporting  to  be 
"  From  the  Shop  of  Messrs.  Colon  &  Spondee."  From  J. 
T.  Buckingham's  "  Reminiscences,"  who  was  at  that 
time  "  Printer's  Devil  "  in  the  office  of  the  "Museum," 
we  gather  many  interesting  anecdotes  of  the  tiroes  of 
Tyler  and  Fessenden  : 

"  Colon  &  Spondee  "  came  out  almost  every  week,  with 
new  varieties  of  their  small  wares;  T.  G.  Fessenden 
produced  his  political  lampoons,  under  the  signature  of 
*' Simon  Spunkey;  "  Dennie  wrote  with  great  rapidity, 
and  generally  postponed  his  task  until  he  was  called  up- 
on for  "copy,"  which  was  oftengiven  out  a  paragraph 
at  a  time,  sometimes  being  written  in  the  composing 
room  while  the  compositor  was  waiting  to  put  it  in  type. 
One  of  the  best  of  his  "Lay  Sermons"  was  written  at  the 
village  tavern,  directly  opposite  the  printing  oibce,  in  a 
chamber  where  he  and  his  friends  were  amusing  them- 
selves with  cards.  If  he  hajipened  to  be  engaged  in  a 
game  when  I  applied  for  copy,  he  would  ask  some  one  to 
play  his  hand  for  him  while  he  could  give  the '"devil" 
his  due.  When  I  called  for  the  closing  paragraph  he 
said.  "  call  again  in  five  minutes."  "  No,"  said  Tyler, 
"  I  will  write  the  improvement  for  you."  He  accordingly 
wrote  a  concluding  paragraph,  and  Dennie  never  saw  it 
until  it  was  in  print.  Tyler's  contributions  to  the  Museum 
were  numerous,  and  would  form  several  volumes  if  col- 
lected together;  he  could  vary  his  style  from  "grave  to 
gay,  from  lively  to  severe,  "as  easily  as  he  could  draw  on 
his  glove. 

Mr.  Tyler  was  born  in  Boston,  July  i8,  1757;  the  son  of 
Royall  Tyler,  a  distinguished  citizen  of  Boston  in  colonial 
times,  and  died  in  Bratlleboro,  August  16,  1826  ;  he  was 
christened  William  C.  Tyler,  but  had  the  name  changed 
to  Royall  by  act  of  the  general  court  after  the  death  of  his 
father.  He  was  graduated  at  Harvard,  1776 ;  studied 
law,  it  is  said,  in  the  office  of  John  Adams,  and  for  a 
time  was  aid  to  General  Sullivan  in  1778,  also  to  (gen- 
eral Lincoln  during  the  Shays'  rebellion  in  17S6-7.  He 
was  sent  by  General  Lincoln  to  the  Governments  of  New 
York  and  Vermont  to  make  arrangements  for  the  deliv- 
ery of  Shays  and  his  adherents  to  the  authorities  of  Mas- 
sachusetts, should  they  escape  to  those  States.  The  result 
of  his  mission  to  Vermont  was  not  entirely  satisfactory, 
as  appears  from  Minot's  history,  which  says:  "With 
respect  to  that  Government,  [Vermont]  the  Legislature 
had  been  officially  informed,  that  on  the  ijth  of  February, 
[1787],  General  Lincoln  dispatched  Royall  Tyler,  Esq.,  one 
of  his  Aids  deCamp,  to  request  their  assistance  in  appre- 
hending the  rebel  ring-leaders  :  That,  upon  his  commu- 
nicating his  instructions  and  request  in  writing,  the  sub- 
ject of  them  was  put  in  Committee,  [See  Governor  and 
Council  of  Vermont,  Vol.  3,  pp.  119,  125  and  126]  and  a  re- 
port made  for  requesting  tiie  Governor  [Thomas  Chit- 
tenden], to  issue  his  proclamation,  enjoining  it  upon 
their  citizens  not  to  harbor  the  leaders  or  abettors  of  the 
rebels:  That  this  report  was  accepted  by  their  lower 
House,  and  sent  up  to  their  Council,  where  there  also  ap- 
peared eight  or  nine  assistants,  [Councillors]  in  favor  of 
it:  Tliat  it  would  of  course  have  passed  there,  but  for 
tlie  Governor's  objections,  which  were  at  first  founded 
upon  his  not  having  given  the  subject  a  proper  consider- 
ation, but  were  afterwards  bottomed  upon  more  serious 
principles  :  These  were  said  to  have  been  raided,  from 
the  impolicy  of  issuing  a  proclamation  which  might  im- 
pede the  emigration  of  subjects  from  other  Slates  into 
that;  and  the  imprudence  of  opposing  the  sense  of  their 
people,  who  began  to  assemble  in  arms  in  a  neighboring 
town,  [probably  refers  to  Windsor  or  Rutland]  and  who 
miglit  create  an  insurrection,  and  surround  the  Legisla- 
ture, unless  the  report  were  dismissed  :  There  being  no 
prospect  of  Mr.  Tyler's  effecting  the  object  of  his  request, 
he  departed  [from  Vermont]  with  strong  apprehensions, 
that  the  bulk  of  the  people  in  that  State  were  for  afford- 
ing protection  to  tho  rebels,  and  that  no  immediate  or 
effectual  aid  would  be  granted." 

Mr.  Tyler  removed  to  Guilford,  Vt.,  in  1790,  where  he 
commenced  the  practice  of  his  profession.  In  1800  he 
was  elected  a  Judge  of  the  Supreme  Court,  and  remained 
upon  the  bench  until  1813,  the  last  six  years  as  Chief  Jus- 
tice. 

He  was,  in  addition  to  his  literary  work  already  men- 
tioned, a  prolific  contributor  to  various  journals,  the 
Portfolio  of  Philadelphia,  estublished  by  Dennie  on  his 
removal  there  in  1800;  the  New  England  Galaxy,  Poly- 
anthos,  by  Buckingham,  in  Boston,  and  others.  A  vol- 
ume of  his  articles  in  the  Museum,  etc.,  was  collected 
and  published  in  iSoi.

Mr.  Tyler's  elevation  to  the  Supreme  Bench  did  not  ap- 
parently lessen  his  literary  ardor,  as  he  contributed  his 
"  Author's  Evenings  "  to  Dennic's  rorlfotio,  from  iSoo  to 
1812.     "  He  was  a  wit,  a  poet,  and  a  Chiet  Justice.** 

The  following  is  copied  from  a  paper  iu  the  liandwrit- 
inj£  of  Judge  Tyler,  found  in  a  packa^u  of  mamiscripts 
relating  to  the  Shaj'S  Kubellion.  recetitly  presented  to 
the  X'crmont  Historical  Society  tiy  the  Kev.  Dr.  Tyler,  of 
liraltlehoro.  This  paper  ar)pearsto  be  a  copy  of  a  report 
lo  the  tiovcrnor  of  Massactiusetts,  or  to  (ieneral  Lincohi, 
by  Judge  Tyler,  while  on  his  mission  to  the  Legislature 
of  Vcrinonl  at  KeoTiinKtou.  in  February.  17S7  : 

"  The  Governor  [Thomas  Chittenden]  in  my  presence 
said  that  whenever  people  were  oppressed  they  will  mob 
and  that  the  people  who  fouj^ht  the  Iteniiinglon  action 
are  now  uiuler  guard,  giving  his  opinion  plumply  against 
our  cause,  and  that  it  wf)uld  not  do  for  this  State  to  have 
any  concern  w  th  Massachusetts  quarrels.  In  the  com- 
pany of  last  evening  I  heard  numbers  of  respectable  men, 
to  appearance  rctjuesting  him  not  to  have  anytliing  to 
do  with  those  just  persons  who  have  Med  into  this  State 
for  shelter,  and  further  the  Governor  said  he  did  not  con- 
ceive tlKwiature  of  their  otfcnso  to  be  such  that  it  was 
the  duty  of  this  State  to  be  aiding  in  sending  them  away 
to  the  halter.  General  Ethan  Allen  in  my  presence  said 
that  those  who  hold  the  reins  of  the  government  in  Mas- 
sachusetts were  a  pack  of  damned  rascals,  and  that  there 
was  no  virtue  aitkoiig  theni,  and  that  he  (ltd  not  think  it 
worth  anybody's  while  to  try  to  prevent  them  who  had 
tied  into  this  State  for  shelter  from  cutting  ilown  our  ma- 
ple trees;  and  the  common  people  liccked  around  him  as 
though  he  had  a  sight  to  show.  The  connnonalily  aver 
that  they  will  shelter  anybody  who  applies  lo  any  of 
their  houses  for  shelter,  and  it  is  generally  said  that 
our  quarrel  will  be  ten  thousand  pounds  advantage  to 
this  State." 

The  feeling  in  \'ermont  was  so  intense  against  giving 
up  to  the  authorities  of  Massachusetts  any  of  the 
Shays  men,  that  Judge  Tyler  felt  some  fears  for  his  own 
safety,  as  shown  by  the  following  extract  from  a  letter  of 
l-'cbruary  21,  17S7,  written  at  Pittstield,  Mass.,  by  Gen. 
Itcnjamin  Lincoln  to  Judge  Tyler  :  "As  soon  as  you  lind 
your  person  in  danger,  or  that  your  servicescannot  avail, 
pray  return;  you  have  done  a  great  deal;  we  cannot 
command  success;  todeserve  it  has  the  same  merit." 

Anotlier  incident  in  the  Shays  rebellion  should  be 
noticed  ;  that  the  military  of  Massachusetts  fiUihustered 
into  the  independent  State  of  Vermont,  and  took  there- 
from several  persons.  Mr.  Minot  tells  the  story  as  fol- 
lows : 

"Un  the  i6th  of  February,  17S7.  General  Shepard  de- 
tached a  party  of  horse  from  Northfield,  Mass.,  under 
the  command  of  Captain  Samuel  BuHiiigton,  for  the  pur- 
pose o(  apprehending  certain  insurgents,  who  liad  tied 
to  Vermont.  L'non  their  arrival  within  that  Govern- 
ment, although  they  had  procured  a  warrant  from  a  Mag- 
istrate to  apprehend  the  objects  or  their  search,  yet  the 
people  assembled  in  such  numbers  and  evinced  such  a 
hostile  disposition  towards  them,  that  they  were  obliged 
to  relinquish  their  pursuit,  and  return  to  Massachusetts. 
They,  however,  in  the  evening,  sent  a  small  number  from 
their  body,  among  whom  was  Mr.  Jacob  Walker,  lo 
secure  one  Jason  I'arnienter,  who  had  acted  as  a  Captain 
with  the  insurgents,  l^nforlunately  for  Walker,  they 
soon  overtook  the  person  whom  they  were  sent  after, 
accompanied  in  his  llight  by  several  others.  The  sleighs 
of  the  opposite  parties  unexpectedly  ran  ujjon  each 
other;  and  on  Parmenter's  hailing  and  recei\ing  no 
answer  he  ordered  his  men  to  fire;  but  mischief  was 
prc\cnte(l  by  their  guns  notgoingolf.  Parmenter  and 
Walker  then  raised  tlieir  pieces  together  and  fired.  The 
latter  was  sliot  through  the  body, and  died  in  half  an  lumr. 
The  survivor  and  his  associates  escaped  by  the  help  of 
the  woods  and  the  deep  snow,  into  Vermont,  where,  how- 
ever, they  were  all  taken  next  day,  by  a  body  of  infantry, 
detached  from  the  militia  by  Captain  liuninglon ;  Par- 
menter was  afterwards  tried  and  convicted  of  treason." 
The  setiuel  as  lo  Parmenter  and  another  under  sen- 
tence of  death  is  this,  as  told  by  Mr.  Minot :  The  in- 
surgents on  May  21,  1787,  captured  Joseph  Metcalfand 
Medad  Ponicroy,  prominent  persons  in  Warwick,  Mass,, 
and  vicinity;  notice  was  given  tliat  these  persons  would 
beheld  as  hostages  to  secure  the  lives  of  Jason  Parmen- 
ter and  Henry  M'Cullock.  The  hostages  were  conveyed 
to  a  place  of  safety  without  the  Slate  of  Massachusetts  ; 
it  is  not  stated  whether  they  were  taken  lo  Vermont  or 
Rhode  Island,  the  latter  State  having  positively  refused 
lo  comply  with  the  re<iuestof  Massachusettstosurrender 
refugees  fleeing  within  her  borders.  Rhode  Island  had 
not  forgotten  the  persecutions  endured  by  her  first  set- 
tlers, under  Koger  Williams, in  being  barbarously  driven 
and  banished  from  Massachusetts. 

Parmenter  and  M'Cullock  were  not  evecuted.     There 
seems  to  be  a  little  confusion  in  Mr.   Minot's  history  as 


to  whether  the  "warrant  from  a  Magistrate,"  to  Captain 
Bulhngton,  was  issued  by  a  Magistrate  of  Massachusetts 
or  Vermont;  the  balance  of  evidence  is  that  whatever 
"warrant"  he  had,  was  from  the  former  Stale,  for  no 
Magistrate  in  Vermoni  at  that  time  was  authorized  to 
issue  any  such  warrant;  therefore  I  use  the  word,  "filli- 
bustcre<l." 

We  print  the  following  letter  from  the  kev.  Thomas  P. 
Tyler,  L).  D.,ason  of  Judge  Koyall  Tyler,  although  it 
was  not  written  with  a  view  to  publication  : 

Brattleboro,  Nov.  30,  1877. 
For  some  time  past  I  have  been  engaged  in  writing  a 
memoir  of  my  father.  Hon,  Kovall  Tyler,  Chief  Justice  of 
Vermont  in  the  early  years  of  this  century.  He  was  one 
of  the  distinguished  men  of  his  day,  not  only  as  a  Jurist, 
but  as  a  polished  writer,  standing  prominent  in  the  circle 
of  wits  who  first  gave  character  to  the  lighter  literatufc 
of  New  England.  He  was  the  author  of  the  first  Ameri- 
can work  of  (iction  re-published  in  London, and  of  tiie  first 
comedy  successfully  brought  out  on  the  stage.  Having 
retired  from  professional  life  at  three  score.  I  underttnik 
this  work  on  the  instigation  of  my  eldest  brother,  since 
deceased,  and  of  Mr.  Chittenden,  of  New  Vork,  whom  1 
do  not  know  personally,  but  piesume  to  be  a  descendant 
of  our  grand  old  Governor.  My  design  then  was  to  pub- 
lish, but  change  ol  pecuniary  circumstances  renders  this 
impossible  now,  but  I  have  continued  it  as  alaborof 
love,  intending  to  make  a  large  and  firmly  bound  nianu* 
script  volume  which  I  propose  ultimately  to  commit  to 
the  care  and  keeping  of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society. 
I  have  also  my  father's  published  books,  "The  Algcrine 
Captive."  "The  Vankee  in  London."  "The  Contrast,"  (a 
comedy.)  if  tost,  these  probably  could  not  be  replaced, 
having  been  these  sixty  years  out  of  print.  These  also, 
I  design  to  have  firmly  re-bound,  and  placed  in  your 
archives— all  this,  of  course,  dependent  on  your  willing- 
ness to  lake  charge  of  them,  and  on  your  favorable  judg- 
ment as  to  the  advisability  of  such  a  disposition  of  them. 
Amongjutlgc  Tyler's  papers  I  find  a  package  mnrVed 
"Shays  Kebellion."  He  was  an  aid  to  General  Lincoln, 
and  was  sent  to  meet  the  Governor  and  Legislature  of  Ver- 
mont at  Kennington,  These  papers  are  various  :  Letters 
from  Gen.  Lincoln;  minutes  of  conferences  with  out  oUi- 
cers  ;  accounts  of  expeditions  in  pursuit  of  the  rebels  ;  one 
scrawl  from  Shays  himself  declining  to  walk  into  a  trap 
baited  for  him.  These  are  at  your  service.  i(  you  think 
best  to  take  them.  My  brother,  Koyall  Tyler,  Judge  of 
Probate,  and  my  sister,  reside  here  now,  hut  in  a  very 
few  years  there  will  not  be  a  descendant  of  the  Chief 
Justice  left  in  the  State.  Hence  my  anxiety  lo  leave  such 
mementoes  as  I  can  of  one  whom  I  naturally  regard  as 
one  of  the  brightest  ornamentsof  the  judicial  and  liter- 
ary historv  of  Vermont. 

In  all  this  yon  will  not  sec  any  sufficient  reason  for  my 
troubling  you  about  the  matter  now,  but  I  trust  what  I 
have  to  add  will  suffice  foran  apology.  Fifty  years  have 
elapsed  since  my  father's  death.  His  contemporaries 
have  long  since  passed  away.  The  materials  (or  bio- 
graphy are  of  course  mainly  letters  and  other  manu- 
script, or  printed  documents.  It  is  singular,  but  true, 
that  the  department  wherein  information  is  most  im- 
portant to  be  obtained  (that  of  the  law)  is  just  where  it 
is  most  meagre  and  unsatisfactory.  There  were,  as  you 
are  aware,  several  trials  during  his  session  on  the  Su- 
preme bench,  in  which  the  violence,  heal  and  animosi- 
ties of  politics,  the  virulence  of  which  passes  all  our  ex- 
perience, arrayed  the  [^ople  as  partisans  on  cither  si<lc. 
Such  was  especially  the  case  in  the  Embargo  war  times, 
in  the  Hlacksnakc  afiair  there  were  several  trials,  some 
of  which  1  learn  from  father's  letters  were  prepared  by 
himself  for  publication,  but  my  most  diligent  elloita  have 
failed  to  find  one  of  them.  I  do  find  from  the  Ictlers 
of  Senator  Robinson  and  other  of  his  friends,  that  in  their 
judgment  his  charges  to  the  jurifs,  and  other  official  ads 
in  the  conduct  of  the  trials,  contribuled  much  to  allay 
partisan  feeling  and  brirn^  the  people  back  to  sentiments 
of  justice  and  patriotism.  You  will  conceive  what  an 
"hiatus  valile  detlendus"  is  theutter  want  of  any   repoit 

ofthe  trials.  

The  distiuKuished  and  Honorable  lliland  Hall,  who 
has  interested  himself  and  aided  me  in  this  matter,  ad- 
vised me  locommunicalewith  you,  thinking  that  if  copies 
of  the  trials  were  in  the  Historical  or  Slate  Libraries, 
you  might  be  able  to  procure  me  the  loan  of  them. 

My  brother.  Rev.  George  P.  T>ler,  I».  I>  ,  formerly  pas- 
tor of  the  Congregational  Society  in  this  village,  ptcscnt- 
ed  lo  the  Vermont  Historical  Society  a  manuscript  report 
of  one  of  these  Trials.  He  thinks  you  would  let  me  take 
it  for  the  purpose  of  this  Hiogranhy,  to  be  carefully  pre- 
fierved  and  returned.  I  am  well  aware  that  you  mav  be 
restrained  bv  rules  prohibiting  the  removal  of  pamphlets 
or  manuscripts  from  vour  care,  but.  asmy  object  is  to  re- 
duce to  definite  form  the  materials  of  history  these  man- 
uscripts or  pamphlets  contain,  1  hope  that  no  by  laws,

My  brother,  Rev.  George  P.  Tyler,  D.  D.,  formerly  an 
active  member  of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society,  now 
resides  in  Lansingburgh,  N.  Y.  He  thinks  you  will  re-

me.  The  Rev.  Dr.  Hull  of  Montpelier,  an  old  and  esteem-

The  Black  Snake  alTair  alluded  to  by  Rev.  Dr.  Tylor, 
grew  out  of  the  capture  of  a  smuggling  boat,  called  the 
"Black  Snake,"  which  under  the  embargo  act  of  iSoS  did 
a  large  smuggling  business  on  Lake  Champlain,  and  in 
her  capture  that  year,  several  lives  were  lost,  and  the 
crew  of  the  boat  were  tried  for  murder,  and  several  con- 
victed, Cyrus  B.  Dean,  however,  being  the  only  one  final- 
ly executed.

Royall  Tyler,  the  younger,  was  the  son  of  Judge  Royall 
Tyler.  He  was  born  in  Brattleboro  April  ig,  1812,  and 
died  in  that  town  Oct.  27,  1S96,  being  the  last  survivor  of 
a  family  of  11  children.  He  graduated  from  Harvard 
Law  school  in  1834,  studied  in  the  oflice  of  Charles  C. 
Loring  of  Boston,  and  was' admitted  to  the  Bar  in  1S37, 
but  discontinued  the  practice  of  law  when  he  was  elected 
county  clerk  in  1851.  He  held  the  office  of  judge  of  pro- 
bate for  fifty  years,  from  1846  till  his  death,  being  prob- 
ably the  oldest  probate  judge  in  service  in  New  England. 
He  had  also  reiiresented  Brattleboro  in  the  Legislature 
and  had  been  State's  attorney. 

He  was  a  member  of  the  Episcopal  church.  His  wife,

copy  of  "A  Public  Defence,"  etc.,  in  fine  condition  No 
1434,  star,  on  the  catalogue,  sold  for  fifteen  dollars 

As  the  auctioneer,  Sullivan,  remarked,  (the  salfS  be- 
ing mostly  on  orders  held  by  the  auction  house)  the 
audience  was  "small,  but  select,"  numbering  not  more 
than  a  dozen  persons,  of  whom  four  or  five  were  librari- 
ans representing  prominent  institutions  in  Boston  and 
one  Vermonter. 

After  the  sale  of  a  rare  book,  at  whatever  price  it  may 
fetch.  It  IS  usual  for  the  auctioneer  to  rest  a  moment 
that  the  audience  may  "  catch  tht  ir  breath."  During  the 
rest  of  perhaps  twenty  seconds  after  the  above  book  was 
sold  the  following  pleasant  episode  occurred  : 

Vermonter.— <To  auctioneer.)  ".Mr.  Sullivan,  Vermont 
books  are  selling  pretty  well." 

Boston  librarian  (under  a  salary  of  four  thousand  dol- 
lars, or  more) :    "  It  is  a  New  Hampshire  book." 

Vermonter:     New  Hampshire  Grants  is  Vermont." 

Bostonian;  "  The  town  |  Dresden  imprint]  is  in  New 
Hampshire." 

Vermonter  :  "It  was  at  date  of  imprint  a  part  of  Ver- 
mont." 

A  smile  all  around,  and  another  Boston  librarian  posted 
in  history,  butreceiving  a  salary  of  perhaps  seven  or 
eight  hundred  dollars,  said:  "Mr.  Vermonter  you  are 
right.  '    And  the  sale  proceeded.

[These  papers,  etc.,  give  an  account  of  the  negotiations 
between  Vermont  and  the  Governor  of  Canada  from 
lannary,  1779,  to  March,  17S3;  the  negotiations  on  the 
bart  of  Vermont  were  conducted  by  half  a  dozen  or  so 
leading  men  of  the  State,  the  general  public  being  kept 
in  entire  ignorance  of  the  matter.  This  period  in  Ver- 
mont history  has  been  a  subject  of  severe  criticism,  even 
down  to  the  present  time,  but  one  answer  alone,  to  all 
this  is  sufficient;  Vermont  was  a  free  and  independent 
State  or  nation,  with  no  alliance  whatever  with  any  of 
the  thirteen  colonies,  and  had  a  right  to  negotiate  with 
Great  Britain  or  any  other  nation,  as  seemed  best  for  the 
interest  of  her  people.]  j   ,    ,  .     .  c.„i„  ,.,a,

Kev.  George  Leon  Walker,  second  son  of  Kev.  Charles 
Walker,  D.  D.,  was  born  at  Rutland.  Vt.,  April  30,  1830. 
In  his  later  youth  he  was  so  much  of  an  invalid  as  to  be 
compelled  to  abandon  a  college  course,  and  his  studies 
therefore  were  mainly  self-directed,  and  prosecuted  alone. 
At  the  age  of  twenty  years  he  began  the  study  of  law, 
which  he  pursued  for  about  three  years,  when  by  renewed 
illness  he  was  obliged  to  give  it  up.  Upon  recovering  his 
health  he  turned  his  attention  toward  the  ministry.  He 
read  theology  at  Andover  Theological  Seminary  for  a 
while,  and  was  settled  as  a  pastor  at  Portland,  .Maine, 
October  13,  1S58  where  he  remained  until  October.  1867, 
when  he  found  a  suspension  of  labor  necessary,  and  he 
retired  to  Pittsford,  Vt.,  for  about  one  year,  when  he  ac- 
cepted a  call  to  Centre  Church,  New  Haven,  Conn.,  where 
he  was  installed  November  18,  1868. 

Mr.  Walker  continued  at  New  Haven  until  1875,  when 
continued  ill  health  compelled  him  to  resign  ;  he  moved 
to  Brattleboro,  Vt..  where  he  acted  as  pastor  0/ the  Con- 
gregational church  in  that  place,  1S75,  until  his  settlement 
at  Hartford,  Conn.,  February  27,  1879. 

Mr.  Walker  married,  1st,  Maria,  daughter  of  N.  B.  Wil- 
liston,  of  Brattleboro  ;  she  died  August  31,  1S65,  leaving 
two  children  ;  he  married  2d,  Amelia  Reed,  daughter  of 
George  Larned,  of  New  Haven,  Conn.,  September  15,  1S70. 
Mr.  Walker  received  the  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  from 
Middlebury  College  in  1857,  and  the  degree  of  D.  D.,  from 
Yale  College,  July,  1870. 

Dr.  Walker  occupies  a  prominent  and  foremost  position 
in  his  denomination.

nating Influence  of  Mr.  Walker.  He  soon  removed  to

I  quote  a  few  sentences  which  seem  to  show  that  the 
address  is  worthy  of  the  public  eye  for  all  time:  "Since 
the  days  of  the  renowned  little  republics  of  Greece,  the 
genius  of  liberty  had  been  a  constant  and  unrested  fugi- 
tive."' ""Certain  it  is,  that  American  Independence,  like 
the  other  choicest  boons  of  Heaven,  is  not  unassailed 
by  dangers  of  the  most  fearful  promise"  "  *  * 
"  They  did  not  escape  the  prophetic  view  of  Washington,

forewarned  them  of  the  hazards  to  be  apprehended 
from  the  indulgence  of  sectional   prejudices."

PP-  .143-354.  Dn  the  Persons  side,  all  that  can  be  asserted 
is  that  Eliakim  Davis  Persons  was  a  native  of  Long 
Island,  (ind  his  wife,  Rebecca  Dodge,  was  of  Massa- 
chusetts, probably  Northfield,  and  had  numerous  rela- 
tives (one  of  them  inter  married  with  a  Houghton,  uncle 
of  the  late  Mrs.  Samuel  Prentiss,  of  Montpt-lier,)  residing 
near  the  southeastern  line  of  Vermont.  Her  father  and 
two  of  her  brothers,  Asa  and  John,  settled  in  Barre,  Vt., 
and  a  third,  Daniel,  in  Northern  Vermont.  They  have 
numerous  descendants  at  this  day  in  Eastern  and  West- 


ern Vermont,  and  in  the  Western  States.  It  was  and  is  a 
race  of  sterling  virtues.  The  particular  subject  of  this 
notice  was  educated  first  by  his  mother  in  letters  and 
reading  the  notes  of  music;  second,  by  an  occasional 
attendance  at  the  district  school,  in  which  he  was  spe- 
cially noted  for  his  habit  ol  running  away  on  every  pos- 
sible occasion ;  third,  in  Washington  County  Grammar 
school,  in  which  he  was  fitted  for  t  ollege  by  one  of  the 
best  Principals  that  school  ever  had,  the  late  Jonathan 
C.  Southmayd.  But  the  young  E.  P.  was  not  permitted 
to  go  to  coUeece,  and  thereupon  entered  the  law  office  of 
Samuel  and  Samuel  B.  Prentiss,  when  Judge  Prentiss 
was  in  the  United  States  Senate.  Here  he  obtained  the 
elements  of  the  law,  and  moieo\er  an  insight  into  na- 
tional politics,  through  the  books  and  documents  re- 
ceived by  Judge  Prentiss  as  Senator.  But  largely  he  was 
educated  in  his  father's  printing  oflice,  and  an  excellent 
school  every  printing  office  is  to  any  boy  or  girl  who  has 
obtained  the  elements  of  an  English  education,  and  will 
improve  the  opportunities  of  the  office.  From  the  time 
the  lad  was  "  knee-high  to  a  toad  "and  had  to  stand  in  a 
chair  to  get  up  to  the  "  case,"  this  boy  was  put  into  the 
office  and  kejil  there  in  vacations  from  school.  Another 
very  useful  school  was  the  old  Montpelier  Lyceum,  with 
its  written  essays  and  extemporaneous  debates.  In 
1826-7  he  spent  a  year  in  Esse.x,  N.  Y.,  and  there  edited 
and  printed  his  first  newspaper,  a  single  issue  of  the 
Essex  County  Republican.  The  editors  and  publishers 
were  away,  and  had  suspended  publication  for  a  week; 
but  the  young  and  ardent  politii  ian  could  not  have  it  so. 
Without  any  authority  from  his  masters,  he  got  up  a 
paper  full  of  editorial  matter — part  of  it  written  and  part 
of  it  composed  at  the  case.  The  proof-sheets  were  sub- 
mitted to  the  late  Gen.  Henry  H.  Ross,  of  Essex,  then  a 
Member  of  Congress  and  a  zealous  Adams  man.  Bring- 
ing them  back,  the  General  with  his  face  beaming  with 
smiles,  put  both  hands  on  the  boy's  shoulders,  and  said, 
"  Print  it,  boy!  print  it !  "  From  that  moment,  though 
preferring  the  law,  the  business  of  printer  and  editor 
seemed  to  have  been  ordained  for  him.  On  becoming 
of  age,  in  1833.  he  became  a  partner  with  his  father  in 
the  publication  of  the  Vermont  Watchman  and  State 
Gazette.  Gen.  Walton  wrote  occasionally  for  that  pa- 
per, but  other  branches  of  a  very  extetisive  business  de- 
manded his  attention,  and  the  newspaper  and  printing 
department  were  in  the  charge  of  E.  P.  Walton,  Jr.,  as 
his  signature  commonly  was  during  the  life  of  his  father, 
although  not  correct  except  when  the  initials  of  it  were 
given.  In  1S53  the  Vermont  Watchman  and  State  Jour- 
nal, came  into  his  possession  exclusively,  and  so  con- 
tinued until  the  sale  to  the  Messrs.  Poland,  in  186S. 

During  all  this  period  the  editorship  of  Walton's  Ver- 
mont Register  was  in  his  charge.  The  Vermont  Capital, 
1857,  consisted  mainly  of  his  reports;  volume  two  of  the 
collections  of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society  was  edited 
by  him  ;  and  also  the  eight  volumes  of  the  Record  of  the 
Governor  and  Council,  together  with  documents  touch- 
ing the  early  history  of  the  State.  Although  an  active 
and  zealous  politician  from  his  youth,  and  helping  many 
men  to  high  offices,  he  never  sought  office  for  himself. 
Nevertheless  in  1853  he  was  elected  Representative  of 
Montpelier;  and  in  185'V,  greatly  to  his  surprise,  he  was 
called  upon  by  the  late  Senator  Foot,  and  another  mem- 
ber of  the  Vermont  delegation  still  living,  to  become  a 
candidate  for  Congress  in  the  first  Congressional  Dis- 
trict, on  the  grounds  that  a  change  was  absolutely  neces- 
sary. Under  the  very  delicate  circumstances  of  the  case, 
Mr.  Walton  was  unwilling  to  be  a  candidate,  and  urged 
the  late  Ferrand  P".  Merrill  to  stand  in  his  stead.  Mr, 
Merrill  refused,  and  ultimately  Mr.  Walton  was  nomin- 
ated and  received  three  elections,  after  which  he  de- 
clined further  service.  In  1870  he  was  the  delegate  of 
Montpelier  in  the  Constitutional  Convention  ;  and  he  was 
also  Senator  for  Washington  county,  1874  until  1S78.  The 
Honorary  Degree  of  Master  of  Arts  was  conferred  upon 
Mr.  Walton  by  the  University  of  Vermont,  and  also  by 
Middlebury  College.  He  was  President  of  the  Publish- 
ers' and  Editors'  Association  of  Vermont  for  many  years, 
and  of  the  Vermont  Historical  Society  from  1876  until  his 
death.  Mr.  Walton  married  June  6,  1S36,  Sarah  Sophia, 
second  daughter  of  the  late  Hon.  Joseph  Howes,  of 
Montt^elier.  Mrs.  Walton  died  at  Montpelier,  Septem- 
ber 3,  1880.  In  October,  1S82,  he  married  Mrs.  Clara  P. 
Field  of  Columbus.  O.  He  died  at  Montpelier,  Dec.  19,

The  fierce  anti-slavery  tract  with  this  title  was  written 
by  Camilla,  daughter  of  Jonathan  Ware,  mentioned  be- 
low. She  was  born  in  Peacham,  Vt.,  November  28,  1804. 
Educated  in  the  Ursuline  Convent  at  Three  Rivers, 
Canada,  and  becam._.  her  father's  close  literary  compan- 
ion and  coworker.  She  had  a  remarkably  bright  and 
active  mind,  was  fond  of  study,  and  became  a  linguist 
hardly  less  accomplished  than  her  preceptor  himself, 
mastering  no  less  than  six  languages  besides  her  own  so 
as  to  read  and  teach  them— Hebrew, Greek, Latin, French, 
Spanish  and  Italian— and  gaining  some  knowledtce  of 
German  and  Russian.  Like  her  father,  also,  she  wanted 
capacity  for  affairs,  and  failed  to  put  her  remarkable 
acquirements  to  any  practicable  use  beyond  the  helping 
of  him  and  some  not  very  successful  school  teaching. 
She  came  to  be  quite  eccentric,  and  indeed  almost  crazy; 
and  died  in  Cabot,  August  10,  1871,  an  old  woman  before 
her  time.

Beiug  a  general  history  of  the  State  brought  down  to 
about  iS  10.  It  has  been  stated  that  this  work  was  pre- 
sented to  the  Vermont  Historical  Society;  but  it  ha.s  never 
been  in  its  possession;  the  writer  traced  it  to  the  posses- 
sion of  Ware  Butterfield,  Esq.,  of  Concord,  N.  H.,  a  rela- 
tive of  the  author;  and  in  1.S76  ascertained,  through  cor- 
respondence, that  Butterfield  had  "gone  west.*'  but  to  the 
present  date  { 1S80)  his  whereabouts  have  not  been  discov- 
ered.

The  story  of  Jonathan  Ware's  life  is  that  of  remark- 
able ability  and  learning  directed  to  but  little  practical 
purpose,  and  makes  a  very  curious  chapter  in  the  history 
of  Vermont  literature.  He  was  born  in  Wrentham, 
Mass..  April  24,  1767,  of  parentage,  especially  on  his 
mother's  side,  of  strongly  marked  character  and  no  mean 
literary  and  scientific  culture.  He  graduated  at  Harvard 
in  1790,  studied  law  at  Bennington,  Vt.,  married  at  Pom- 
fret  in  1794.  and  soon  afler  began  the  practice  of  his  pro- 
fession at  Peacham.  Here  he  was  instrumental  in  start- 
ing the  (?»««  .VoKn/am  Paliiot,  the  first  newspaper  in 
that  part  of  the  State,  and  was  active  in  public  affairs. 
He  was,  however,  unfortunate  in  his  practice  and  in 
money  afl^airs,  and  so  abandoned  the  profession  and 
naoved  to  Danville.  During  the  war  of  181 2  he  was  in  the 
army  a  short  time  at  Burlington  and  Plattsburg,  and  in 
1S13  moved  to  Pomfret,  where  he  settled  on  a  rough  farm 
in  a  secluded  part  of  tire  town,  and  there  began  the  liter- 
ary work  and  study  which  only  ended  with  his  life.  He 
first  wrote  and  published  the  little  grammar,  mentioned 
above,  intending  to  follow  it  with  a  larger  work  on  the 
same  subject;  but  the  book  was  too  eccentric  to  be  useful, 
and  the  plan  fell  to  the  ground.  Becoming  pressed  for 
money,  he  left  home  and  for  two  or  three  years  taught 
Greek  in  schools  at  Boston  and  New  York,  then  returned 
and  opened  a  (elect  achool  In  a  log  building— which  he 


called  an  "Academy,"  on  his  own  farm.  This  enterprise 
was  soon  abandoned,  however,  and  from  about  the  year 
1823  to  the  time  of  his  death,  he4ived  quietly,  working 
on  his  farm  and  preparing  the  manuscripts  named. 
The  most  remarkable  of  these  is  of  course  the  "Lexicon,'' 
which  as  a  monument  of  persevering  toil,  is  doubtless 
without  a  rival  in  American  scholarship,  although  from 
its  nature  it  could  at  most  have  been  useful  to  but  a  very 
few  scholars  in  the  end.  There  seems  to  have  been  noth- 
ing to  lead  him  to  undertake  the  Herculean  task  except 
an  enthusiast's  love  of  the  subject  and  of  the  work  in- 
volved. The  plan  under  which  he  began  included  only 
four  languages,  Hebrew,  Greek,  Latin  and  English,  but 
finally  four  others,  French.  Spanish,  Italian  and  Russian, 
were  added,  and  Ware  toiled  on  tlirough  chapter  after 
chapter,  selecting  such  words  as  he  thought  worthy  of 
notice  and  giving  definitions  in  all  the  tongues,  often 
very  copiously.  The  manuscript  took  all  his  spare  time 
for  fully  a  dozen  years,  and  was  within  six  months  of 
completion,  when,  in  Januar\-,  iS,^8.  he  went  to  Harvard 
College  to  consult  some  books.  He  was  taken  sick  on 
the  way  back  and  died  at  the  home  of  one  of  his  daugh- 
ters in  .Andover,  N.  H..  February  1.  in  the  j^earlast  named. 
The  manuscript  has  been  bound,  and  is  preserved  in 
the  Har\'ard  College  Library.

Mrs.  Washingt('n,  daugliter  of  Sawyer  and  Melinda 
Walker,  was  born  in  Wlming,  VI  .January  4,  1S35.  When 
one  year  of  age.  lier  family  removed  to  North  l'"aiifa.\, 
where  she  remained  until  17  years  of  age.  A  farmer's 
daughter,  she  like  "Maud  Muller,"  sometimes  "raided 
the  meadows  sweet  with  hay,"  hut  did  not  meet  the 
"Judge."  This  may  have  been  a  misfortune  to  eitlier 
tiie  '  Judge"  or  herself 

Public  sentiment  in  those  days  did  not  ;il!ow  girls  fish- 
hooks; but  Miss  Walker  caught  speckled  trout  in  "Bea- 
ver brook"  with  a  bent  pin.  Pui>lic  sentiment  could  not 
afford  girls  skates;  but  with  a  light  grip  at  her  brother's 
coat  in  the  reai ,  she  sometimes  took  a  turn  and  a  tangent 
upon  the  mill-pond,  near  the  school.  Had  genius  lieen 
encouraged,  and  the  medical  schools  at  Caslleton  been 
open  to  girls,  she  might  have  made  her  mark  in  life,  as 
slie  was  very  successful  in  nursing  sick  lambs.  The 
only  vocation  to  which  ambition  might  aspire  in  those 
days  was  that  of  country  "schoolmarins;"  she  climbed  to 
this  lofty  position  in  a  little  brown  school  house,  situated 
fifty  feet  above  the  highway,  more  or  less,  in  Underhib, 
Vt.  There,  at  the  age  of  sixt  en.  she  taught  the  Green 
Mountain  girls  and  boys  16  weeks  for  $16,  and  "boarded 
round."  A  little  previous  to  tliis,  her  first  printed  poem 
appeared  in  the  "Universalist  Watchman,"  published  at 
Montpelier — "Esther,"  page  18  of  "Eclioes."  She  took 
a  course  of  study  in  a  ladies'  seminary  in  Rochester.  N. 
Y.,  where  she  was  graduated  in  1856.  Then,  for  two 
years,  she  was  Principal  of  a  collegiate  institute  at 
Brockport,  N.  Y  ,  where  she  married  a  Baptist  clergy- 
man. She  was  one  of  the  original  temperance  crusadeis 
in  Iowa,  in  1874,  and  one  of  the  organizers  of  the  Wo- 
men's Christian  Temperance  I'nion.  As  national  organ- 
izer of  the  W.  C  T.  U.  she  gave  addresses  in  twenty-four 
States,  which  gave  her  higli  rank  as  a  platform  speiiker. 
Her  husband,  Ke\'.  S.  Washington,  is  (1895)  pastor  of  the 
Baptist  Church  in  Port  lervis,  N.  Y.

O"  Christmas  Eve,  December  24,  1S18,  in  Rockingham, 
Vt.,  John  and  Asenath  Weaver  saw  their  first  child. 


Eight  other  children,  four  boys  and  four  girls,  followed 
in  the  succeeding  years.  This  first  born  was  named 
George  Sumner;  lie,  by  being  the  first  born,  inherited  a 
good  deal  of  the  care  and  work  of  the  family,  as  well  as 
a  close,  compact  fibrous  body,  as  full  ot  day's  works 
as  a  nut  is  of  meat.  His  business,  as  soon  as  he  could 
reach  the  plow  handles,  became  the  management  and 
work  of  a  large  farm,  while  his  father  did  jobs  of  road 
making,  and  house,  barn  and  bridge  building,  in  the  re- 
gion round  about.  The  winter  district  sch  ol  of  ten  or 
twelve  weeks  a  year  gave  him  the  key  to  the  mysteries 
of  letters  and  figures,  and  quickened  in  him  a  love  of 
books  and  information,  which  by  the  time  he  was  twen- 
ty-one became  the  a'-'sorbing  interest  of  his  mind.  In  the 
select  schools  in  the  villagesabriut  him,  in  special  Grain- 
mar  school,  in  the  .Academies  at  Ludlow,  Vt..  and  Meri- 
den,  N.  H.,  in  teaching  district  and  select  schools,  and 
in  reading  such  books  as  he  could  buy  and  borrow,  he 
spent  five  years  of  intense  interest  and  absorbing  study. 
One  of^  these  years,  spent  in  Fonda,  N.  V.,  teaching  and 
geologizing  among  the  sands  and  rocks  in  the  day  time, 
and  studjint^  law  and  holding  temperance  meetings  in 
the  evening,  was  a  year  of  very  profitable  study.  In  the 
autunni  of  1844  a  journey  to  Dayton,  Ohio,  began  to  open 
the  world  to  his  mind.  Studying  law  a  year  and  a  half  in 
Dayton,  and  a  course  of  general  reading  in  libraries 
tliere  gave  him  fresh  opportunities  for  improvement. 
In  the  latter  part  of  1845  he  was  admitted  to  the  Bar,  and 
opened  an  office  in  Dayton,  and  for  a  few  weeks  spent  his 
time  in  preparing  a  course  of  six  lectures  on  Astronomy, 
which  were  delivered  before  a  select  audience. 

By  this  time  it  had  become  clear  to  his  mind  that  his 
strongest  inclination  was  towards  the  ministry.  Though 
most  of  the  years  of  his  study  had  been  spent  in  orthodox 
institutions  and  associations,  and  in  constant  attendance 
upon  orthodox  churches, he  was  a  pronounced  Universal- 
ist.  The  way  opening  without  his  peeking  it,  and  so 
singularly  as  to  seem  to  him  providential,  he  preached 
his'first  sermon  in  Springfield,  Ohio,  in  March,  1846,  and 
settled  the  next  month  as  pastnrof  theUniversalist  church 
in  that  place.  He  remained  two  years,  teaching  school 
in  the  winters  in  connection  with  his  constant  work  as  a 
minister. 

In  June,  1848,  he  removed  to  Marietta,  Ohio,  where  in 
an  Academy,  built  in  connection  with  his  church,  he  la- 
bored assiduously,  partly  as  teacher  of  a  class  or  two, 
but  mostly  as  a  man  of  all  work  as  gratuitous  agent  in 
the  vicinity. 

In  May,  1852.  he  started  for  Chicago,  III.,  but  was  de- 
taini  d  at  St.  Louis.  Mo.,  by  a  new  church  which  had  sent 
him  an  invitation.  He  remained  in  St.  Louis  till  the  lat- 
ter part  of  1560,  preaching,  lecturing,  assisting  in  editing 
the  "Golden  Era,"  a  religious  paper,  and  the  "Valley 
Farmer." 

In  November,  i860,  he  settled  in  Lawrence,  Mass., 
where  he  remained  twelve  years  and  a  half,  when  he  ac- 
cepted an  invitation  to  Akron,  Ohio,  to  build  upa  church 
in  connection  with  Buchtel  College,  just  then  started. 
Laboring  here  four  years,  he  accepted  an  invitation  to 
Gale^^burg,  111.,  to  a  church  in  connection  with  Lombard 
I'niversity,  the  first  College  founded  by  the  Universal- 
ists  of  this  country.  Not  being  suited  with  life  so  far 
West,  he  accepted  an  invitation  to  settle,  Januaiy  i,  1879, 
with  a  church  in  Canton,  N.  V  ,  in  coimection  with  the 
first  theological  school  of  the  denomination  and  the 
seat  ofSt.  Lawrence  Uni\ersily. 

Without  sickness  and  without  interruption,  he  has  la- 
bored in  the  cause  of  religion,  education,  morality,  tem- 
perance, health  and  patriotism,  from  21  to  60,  and  still  has 
no  flagging  of  energ>'  or  zeal.  With  pen  and  tongue  and 
hand  and  book  he  has  had  a  busy  life,  which  promises 
well  for  a  continuance  for  some  time  to  come.     (1880.)

taken  in  part  from  an  Address  delivered  in  the 
New  Meeting-House  in  Brattleborough,  July  7, 
1816,  being  the  first  Communion  held  in  that 
place. 

—Some  Communications  first  published  in  the 
Brattleborough   Paper ;    with  Extracts  from 


"Candid  Reflections  on  the  different  Concep- 
tions concerning  the  Doctrine  of  the  Trinity." 
By  William  Wells.  Brattleborough:  1816. 
8vo,  pp.  xvi,  40. 

Mr.  Wells  was  an  Arian-Unitarian,  if  anybody  knows 
what  that  is  ;  he  was  born  in  Biggleswade,  Bedfordshire, 
England,  in  1744;  in  1793,  with  his  wife  and  eight  chil- 
dren he  immigrated  to  America,  landing  at  Boston,  June 
i2of  that  year.  The  next  year  he  purchased  a  farm  at 
Brattleboro,  Vt.,  where  he  resided  until  hisdeath.  Decem- 
ber 27,  1827.  It  is  remarkable  that  fifty-one  years  after 
their  arrival  iu  America  all  his  children  were  alive,  and 
in  good  health— his  youngest  son,  John  Howard,  dying 
in  1844,  at  the  age  of  si.xtv.  Iu  179I  •^t''.  Wells  became 
pastor  of  the  Congregational  church  at  Brattleboro,  suc- 
ceeding the  Rev.  Abner  Reeve,  the  first  pastor,  who 
preached  there  26  years.  Mr  Wells  continued  as  pastor 
20  years. 

In  those  days  a  mini.ster's  house  was  a  tavern  lor  all 
ministers,  whether  known  or  unknown.  The  following 
anecdote  of  Rev.  Mr.  Wells  is  related  bv  the  Rev.  .Samuel 
Willard,  in  "Spragne's  Annals";  A  stranger  minister 
called  for  rest  and  refreshment,  and  the  following 
dialogue  ensued : 

5<ra  ".?;;•— "Are  there  any  heresies  among  you  ? 

Dr.  IVells—"!  know  not  whether  I  understand  the 
drift  of  your  question." 

Stranger— -1  wish  to  inquire,  sir  whether  there  be  any 
Arminians,  Socinians,  or  Universalists  among  you." 

Dr.  Il'ells— "Oh,  sir,  there  are  worse  heretics  than  any 
ofthese." 

Stranger— "My  dear  sir,  what  can  be  worse? 

Dr  Wffe— "Why  there  are  some  who  get  drunk,  and 
some  who  quarrel  with  their  familie,  or  their  neighbors, 
and  some  who  will  not  pay  their  debts,  when  they  might 
do  it,  and  some  are  very  profane.  Such  men  I  thiuk  far 
worse  heretics  than  those  for  whom  you  inquire." 

At  the  age  of  75.  Dr.  Wells  received  the  honorary  D.  D., 
from  Harvard  University.  .

In  addition  to  the  above.  Bishop  Wheeler  writes  us 
that  he  has  published  innumerable  articles  in  the  news- 
papers, both  religious  and  political. 

We  give  the  Bishop's  biographical  sketch,  as  fur- 
nished by  himself:  Born  in  Charlotte,  Vt.,  August  15, 
1817:  and  was  graduated  at  the  University  of  Vermont  in 
1837;  his  father.  Sheldon  Wheeler,  was  a  tanner  and  boot 
»nd  shoe  manufacturer,  and  his  grandfather  was  slain  in 
the  massacre  of  Wyoming. 

The  Bishop  read  theology^  with  Rev.  James  Buckham 
father  of  Kev.  M.  H.  Buckham,  President  of  the  Univer- 
sity of  Vermont,  and  preached  his  first  sermon  at  Straf- 
ford, Vt.,  then  six  months  at  Underbill,  Vt.,  and  began 
his  unprofitable  ministry  in  South  Hero  in  April,  and  was 
ordained  and  installed  Bishop  of  the  Congregational 
church  of  South  Hero  and  Grand  Isle,  November  5,  1840; 
and,  by  the  long-suffering  of  God  and  wonderful  patience 
of  the  people,  he  is  Bishop  still.  He  twice  represented 
his  county  in  the  Vermont  Senate,  and  served  two  terms 
in  the  lower  House  ;  has  been  County  School  Superintend- 
ent, Town  Clerk  and  Treasurer,  County  Grand  juror,  and 
now  holds  the  olHce  of  Fence  Viewer,  with  the  possibil- 
ity of  sometime  being  Pound  Keeper. 

The  Bishop  was  an  early  abolitionist,  and  believes  in 
everybody's  "being  persuaded  in  his  own  mind"  that 
he  will  not  tolerate  fetters  on  his  own  limbs,  or  put  them 
upon  others. 

Mr.  Wheeler  died  at  his  home  in  South  Hero,  February 
I,  1S92.

Mr.  W  illiams,  son  of  Hon.  Charles  K.  Williams,  was 
born  in  Rutland,  Vt.,  Decemlier  20,  1832;  was  graduated 
at  Williams'  College  1852  ;  read  Uiw  and  established  him- 
self at  Flint,  Michigan,  for  the  practice  of  his  profession; 
while  there  he  was  Circuit  Court  Commissioner,  and 
held  other  important  trusts.  He  returned  to  Rutland  in 
1861,  where  he  died  Jan.  7,  1879.  Mr.  Williams  was  for 
many  years  editor  of  the  Rutland  Herald  and  subsequent- 
ly of  the  Globe,  and  was  well  known  in  all  parts  of  the 
State,  He  was  a  vigorous  and  prolific  writer,  a  histori- 
cal student  of  no  mean  repute,  and  a  genial  and  compan- 
ionable  man. 

I  cannot  refrain  irom  adding  a  word  more  as  to  Mr, 
Williams.  It  is  well  known  to  Vermont  historical  stu- 
dents that  his  library  was  rich  in  Vermont  material,  be- 
ing the  accumulation  of  three  generations;  also,  that  he 
would  seldom  allow  any  one  free  access  to  his  historical 
treasures. 

Mr.  Williams,  many  years  before  his  death,  com- 
menced the  preparation  of  a  bibliography  of  his  native 
State.  I  was  aware  of  this  fact,  and  one  of  nij^  first  steps 
in  the  work  which  I  am  now  doing  was  to  visit  Mr.  Wil- 
liams at  his  home;  I  was  then  but  slightly  acquainted 
with  him  ;  he  received  me  with  a  cordiality  warm  and 
frank,  so  differently  from  my  anticipations,  inviting  me  to 
a  free  examination  of  his  book  treasures,  and  offering  his 
assistance  in  everj'  way  to  facilitate  my  work,  assuring 
me  that  he  had  abandoned  the  project  of  a  bibliography 
of  Vermont;  at  the  same  he  was  enthusiastic  in  iavor  of 
the  schem-'.  In  my  subsequent  four  or  five  visits  Mr. 
Williams'  enthusiasm  increased,  and  he  transferred  to 
my  possession  at  a  nominal  price  more  than  two  hundred 
of  his  choice  Vermont  pamphlets  ;  and  of  Vermont  books 
which  he  would  not  part  with  he  copied  for  me  more 
than  three  hundred  titles,  and  up  to  the  time  of  his  de- 
cease he  was,  when  convenient  to  himself,  at  work  in  his 
father's  librarj',  at  the  old  homestead,  in  behalf  of  the 
"Bibliography  of  Vermont." 

Probably  no  citizen  of  Vermont  felt  more  deeply  than 
myself  the  early  death  of  this  friend  of  his  native  State, 
and  the  descendant  of  a  noble  line  of  ancestors.

Mr.  Williams  was  descended  from  noted  ancestors  on 
both  sides;  on  the  paternal  side  from  Robert  Williams, 
who  emigrated  from  England  to  Roxbury,  Mass.,  and 
was  admitted  a  freeman  in  1638,  of  whom  Farmer,  in  his 
genealogy,  says  :  "And  is  the  common  ancestor  of  the 
divines,  civilians,  and  warriors  of  his  name,  who  have 
honored  the  country  of  their  birth."  Re\-.  John  Wil- 
M  Hams,  of  Indian  captivity  fame,  and  the  tirst  minister  at 

Deerfield.  Mass.,  was  a  grandson  of  Robert,  the  immi- 
grant. He  was  also  grandfather  of  our  Rev.  Samuel  Wil- 
liams, LL.D.,  through  his  wife  Eunice  (Mather).  She 
was  descended  from  Rev.  Richard  Mather,  the  immi- 
grant to  Roxbury,  Mass.,  who  was  the  ancestor  of  all  the 
famous  Mathers  of  New  England  history. 

We  print  the  following  sketch  of  Mr.  Williams,  entire, 
ag  printed  in  the  "^VilIiams  Genealogy,"  by  Stephen  W. 
W'illiams,  M.  D.,  A.  M.  It  was  prepared  by  Chief  Jus- 
tice and  Governor  Charles  K.  Williams,  of  Rutland,  as 
Dr.  S.  W.  Williams  in  his  preface,  makes  acknowledge- 
^       ment  to  the  Judge,  who  greatly  assisted  him. 

I  intersperse  two  brief  notes  in  brackets  as  explana- 
tory. 

Rev.  Samuel  Williams,  LL.D.,  was  son  of  Rev.  War- 
ham  Williams, of  Waltham.Mass.  He  was  born  at  W^alt- 
ham,  April  23,  1743  ;  married  Miss  Jane  Kilbourne,  May 
5,  176S ;  died  January  2,  1817,  aged  74.  He  was  gradu- 
ated at  Harvard  College  in  176J.  While  there  lie  was 
selected  by  Professor  ^Vinth^op  to  go  with  him  to  New- 
foundland, to  observe  the  transit  of  Venus,  in  conse- 
quence of  which  he  was  not  present  at  the  Commence- 
ment. He  was  licensed  to  preach  by  the  Association  of 
Ministers  at  Cambridge.  October  11,  1763,  having  spent 
the  intermediate  time  between  his  graduation  and  being 
licensed,  in  teachiuE  school  at  Waltham.  He  preached 
some  time  in  Concord,  ^lass.,  as  a  candidate,  and  after- 
wards at  Bradford,  where  he  was  ordained  November  20, 
1765.  [Where  he  continued  until  his  appointment  as  a 
professor  in  Harvard  University.]  In  the  year  1780  he 
was  appointed  Hollis  Professor  of  .Mathematics  and 
Natural  Philosophy  at  Cambridge.  During  his  residence 
in  Bradford,  Benjamin  Thomson,  afterwards  Count 
Rumford,  studied  philosophy,  etc.,  under  him,  and  was  a 
member  of  his  family  for  some  time,  and  with  whom  he 
corresponded  until  1791.  The  Rev.  Dr.  Pierce  and  the 
Rev.  Dr.  Barnard,  of  Salem,  also  studied  with  him,  and 
he  preached  their  ordination  sermons.  During  his  con- 
tinuance at  the  University,  by  the  request  of  the  Ameri- 
can Academy  of  Arts  and  Sciences,  and  at  the  request  of 
the  Corporation  of  Harvard  College,  he  went  to  Penob- 
scot Bay  to  observe  a  total  eclipse  of  the  sun.  By  order 
of  the  General  Court  of  Massachusetts,  the  Lincoln  gal- 
ley was  fitted  out  for  his  accommodation.  He  went  on 
board  October  9,  1786,  accompanied  by  Stephen  Sewall, 
Professor  of  Oriental  Languages,  James  Winthrop,  Li- 
brarian, Fatisque  Vernon,  A.  B.,  and  Messrs.  Dudley 
Atkins,  John  Davis,  (afterwards  Judge  of  the  District  of 
Massachusetts,)  George  Hall,  John  Dawson,  (afterwards 
Member  of  Congress  from  Virginia,)  and  Jeremiah  Van 
Rensellaer,  student  of  the  University.  The  eclipse  was 
observed  October  20,  1786.  During  his  stay  at  Penobicot 
'he  received  every  attention  and  politeness  from  Captain 
Henry  Mowart,  Commander  of  Her  Britannic  Majesty's 
naval  force  at  Penobscot.  In  the  journey  he  was  accom- 
panied by  Mr. King,  a  Sophomore,   and  also  by  his 

son  Samuel.  He  kept  a  regular  journal  of  his  proceed- 
ings and  observations. 

He  received  while  at  Cambridge  as  Professor,  the 
honorary  degree  of  Doctor  of  Laws  from  Yale  College, 
at  New  Haven,  Conn.,  and  also  from  the  University  of 
Edinburgh,  and  was  an  active  member  of  the  American 
Academy  of  Arts  aiiil  Sciences,  and  furnished  several 
papers,  which  are  printed  in  the  first  volume  of  their 
memoirs.  He  was  elected  a  member  of  the  Meteorologi- 
cal Society  of  ^lanheim,  Germany,  and  of  the  Philosophi- 
cal Society  in  Philadelphia. 

In  the  year  1786,  he  was  appointed  one  of  the  agents  on 
the  part  of  Massachusetts,  to  assist  in  running  and  as- 
certaining the  line  of  jurisdiction  between  the  Common- 
wealth of  Massachusetts  and  the  State  of  New  York. 


[Mr.  Williams  resigned  his  professorship  at  Harvard  at 
some  period  in  the  year  17S8,  and  immediately  removed 
to  Rutland,  Vt.,  though  his  family  did  not  follow  until 
some  time  after.] 

He  afterwards  removed  to  Rutland,  Vt.,  and  preached 
there  for  about  six  years.  Afterward  he  preached  at 
Burlington  for  about  two  years.  He  gave  a  course  of 
lectures  at  the  University,  was  appointed  by  His  Excel- 
lency, Governor  Tichenor,  under  the  act  of  the  Legisla- 
ture in  1805,  to  ascertain  the  boundary  of  the  State  of 
Vermont,  which  service  he  also  performed.  His  pub- 
lished works  are  : 

Two  Sermons  on  Regeneration,  published  in  1766. 

Sermon  on  the  ordination  of  the  Rev.  Mr.  Barnard, 
1773- 

Sermon  on  the  Love  of  cur  Country,  1775. 

Sermon  on  the  ordination  of  Mr.  Pierce,  1780. 

Sermon  at  General  Election  in  Vermont,  1794. 

Sermon  on  the  Evidence  of  Pergonal  Christianity,  1799. 

Sermon  on  the  Love  of  our  Country.  1799.

Natural  and  Civil  History  of  Vermont, published  in  one 
volume,  at  Walpole,  1794. 

Revised  Second  edition  of  do.  in  two  vols.,  1S09. 

He  left  a  work,  which  is  yet  unpublished,  entitled 
"Philosophical  Lectures  on  the  constitution,  duty,  and 
religion  of  man."  He  also  left  sermons,  manuscripts  on 
Astronomical,  Philosophical  and  Mathematical  subjects, 
and  on  the  variation  of  the  magnetic  needle.  For  the 
above  facts,  I  am  indebted  to  his  son.  Gen.  Lharles  Kil- 
bourne  Williams,  Chief  Justice  of  Vermont. 

The  following  obituary  notice  of  him  was  published  in 
the  Rutland Hf raid,] 2^n\\zry  8,  1817  : 

"Died  in  this  village,  after  a  short  illness,  Rev,  Samuel 
Williams,  LL.  D.,  Edinburgh  and  New  Haven,  formerly 
HolHs  Professor  of  Mathematics  and  Natural  Pnilosophy, 
Harvard ;  Member  of  the  Meteorological  Society,  and  of 
the  Academy  of  Arts  and  Sciences  in  Massachusetts. 

In  the  death  of  the  Reverend  and  learned  gentlemen, 
his  family  have  sustained  an  irreparable  loss,  and  his 
numerous  friends  and  acquaintances  will  long  and  deeply 
lament  a  dispensation  which  has  thus  deprived  them  of 
the  virtuous,  elegant,  high  and  dignified  mental  enter- 
tainments always  enjoyed  under  the  beams  of  this  great, 
philosophic,  scientific,  and  Christian  luminary.  Nor  is 
it  with  an  ordinary  sensibility  that  every  class  of  society 
will  regard  so  great  a  deprivation  ;  for  notwithstanding 
the  respectful  attention  of  the  good  and  the  great,  he 
would  often  descend  from  that  eminence  to  which  he  was 
scarcely  less  entitled  by  his  uncommon  literary  attain- 
ments than  by  his  profession  as  a  Christian  minister,  to 
the  humble  walks  of  life,  when  by  his  frankness,  sincer- 
ity, and  the  suavity  of  his  manners,  he  captivated  the  af- 
fections, and  dispensed  delight  and  instruction  to  all 
around  him." 

The  funeral  sermon  was  preached  by  the  Rev.  Henian 
Ball,  D.  D.,  from  a  text  which  he  selected  in  his  life  time; 
part  of  the  43d  Psalm.  4  :  "Unto  God  my  exceeding  joy." 
His  relict.  Mrs.  Jane  Williams,  died  March  24,  1829.  Both 
were  buried  in  the  old  burying  ground,  Rutland,  East 
Parish.  Their  children  were,  Jane,  born  January  22,  1769; 
Samuel,  born  October  3,  1771  ;  Leonard,  born  November 
6.  1776,  died  March,  1812  ;  Charles  Kilbourne,  born  1780. 
died  1780;  Charles  Kilbourne,  born  January  24,  1782, 
Judge  Charles  K.  Williams,  and  Jane,  (Mrs.  Osgood)  are 
now  (1847)  the  only  surviving  children  in  the  family. 

We  print  verbatim  from  the  original  manuscript,  the 
following  important  letter  from  Mr.  ^V^lliams  to  his  wife; 
the  letter  is  addressed  on  the  outside  :  "Mrs.  Jane 
Williams,  Cambridge  ;"  it  has  no  postmark,  as  there 
were  none  except  local  post-routes  in  Vermont  at  that 
time  ;  it  is  written  in  a  fine  clear  hand,  the  lines  close 
together,  and  occupied  one  sideof  a  half  sheet  of  unruled 
paper,  foolscap  size;  it  was  double  sealed  with  two  of 
the  old  fashioned  red  wafers. 

It  will  be  noticed  that  the  letter  is  dated  June  22,  17S9, 
but  was  held,  and  a  postscript  added  July  27,  1789  ;  it  is 
probable  that  no  opportunity  presented  for  forwarding 
it  safely,  until  Mr.  Prentiss  went  below  in  August,  of 
that  year.      I  insert  three  explanatory  notes  in  brackets  : 

Rutland,  June  22,  17S9. 
My  Dear. — Your  letter  of  May  2Sth  came  safe  to  hand 
onJune2ist.  It  gave  much  relief  to  my  mind,  but  it  was 
extremely  painful  to  find  that  amidst  your  other  afflic- 
tions you  had  been  exercised  with  sickness.  God  grant 
your  health  and  spirits  may  be  preserved  ;  and  that  our 
afflictions  may  soon  be  over.  I  should  contrive  every 
way  possible  to  bring  you  here  this  summer,  but  the  thing 
is  impossible;  more  than  fifty  miles  of  the  road  are  im- 
passible but  by  a  slay,  and  the  distress  for  provisions 
throughout  all  Canada  and  the  country  round  here  has 
been  extremely  great.  Would  to  God  I  could  afiord  you 
some  relief  !    But  there  is  no  money  in  this  country;

only  the  produce  of  farms,  which  will  not  come  in  till 
next  fall,  and  bad  off  as  you  must  be,  I  wish  I  had  some 
of  your  Cheese,  Cyder,  Pork,  etc, — Having  secured  what 
can  be  done  from  the  Parish,  my  whole  aim  now  is  to  in- 
fluence and  persuade  the  persons  of  note  here  to  found  a 
college  which  I  hope  to  get  ert'ected  next  October  when 
the  (general  Assembly  come  together.  N.  B.  This  must 
not  he  mentioned  at  Cambridge  by  any  means.  If  I  can 
get  this  effected  I  think  we  shall  be  in  a  flourishing  state 
once  more  —I  thank  you  much  fur  tlie  risbands,  an^^  for 
the  intelligence  respecting  *Mrs.  Emery.  With  regard 
to  the  foreign  letters,  I  wish  you  to  send  them.  As  to 
the  philosophical  transactions,  I  think  they  had  better 
remain  in  your  handrs  for  ilie  present.  Are  they  directed 
to  me  or  to  the  College  ?  One  thing  in  particular  here, 
look  over  the  contents  of  each,  and  see  if  there  is  any  piece 
of  mine  in  either,  and  send  me  ivord  how  this  is  as  I  much 
wish  to  know  what  reception  the  pieces  I  sent  last  fall 
met  with. — The  furniture  that  will  be  wanted  when  we 
mo\"e  here  will  be  the  common  and  ordinary  sort.  Large 
glasses,  the  best  chairs,  and  everything  of  that  sort  will 
be  of  no  use  at  present,  and  there  arc  no  buildings  here 
but  barns  in  which  they  could  be  housed.  Write  as 
much  news  as  you  can,  as  there  is  but  seldom  opportun- 
ity to  send  in  the  summer.  With  regard  to  Leonard  [his 
second  son,  born  November  6,  1776.]  I  shall  send  for 
him  here  if  possible.  The  difficulty  is  how  togethim 
up.  Can  he  ride  on  horseback  ?  or  could  he  come  in  a 
wagon?  If  1  should  send  for  him  give  him  a  charge  not 
to  speak  of  the  state  of  things  below;  only  to  say  that 
his  father  was  much  injured,  and  resigned  his  office  ;  but 
he  does  not  know  the  affair,  etc.— My  tenderest  love  to 
Jenny,  [Jane,  his  eldest  child,  born,  1769.]  I  have  felt 
everything  for  her  in  these  times  that  a  father  could  feel. 
I  have  every  reason  in  the  world  to  think  it  will  not  be 
to  her  disadvantage  to  remove  into  this  country. — My 
little  dear  Charles,  [late  Chief  Justice  and  Governor  of 
Vermont]  God  bless  him.  give  my  love  to  him  !  Do  what 
you  can  to  support  all  their  minds.  From  your  ever  af- 
fectionate husband.  S.  WILLIAMS. 

P.  S. — Mr.  Preutiss  does  uot  go  down  till  August.  S. 
Walker  has  been  here,  and  is  agoing  to  study  law  in  this 
towu.  I  wrote  a  fe\\- lines,  by  him,  which  I  hope  you 
have  received.  Anything  relative  to  cloathes  that  Mr. 
Prentiss  can  bring,  I  wish  you  to  send. 

July  27,  17S9. 

Captain  Samuel  Prentiss,  the  probable  bearer  of  the 
above  letter,  was  a  lawyer  at  Rutland  ;  at  a  federal  cele- 
bration therein  1795.  "federal  toasts  were  drank,  under 
thedischargeof  cannon  fired  by  the  volunteer  corps  of 
artiller3',  under  the  direction  ofCapt.  Samuel  Prentiss  ;" 
he  should  not  be  mistaken  for  Judge  Prentiss,  of  Mont- 
pelier.  See  Vermont,  Governor  and  Council,  Vol.  3. 
pp.  4S3-4. 

I  next  print  an  extract  from  a  letter  written  Sept.  26, 
1879.  by  ^^^  present  pastor  of  the  church  in  Bradford, 
Mass.,  where  Rev.  Mr.  Williams  was  pastor  for  fifteen 
years,  preceding  his  acceptance  of  a  professorship  in 
Har\'ard  University  : 

"In  regard  to  the  sermons,  [one  thousand  or  more  in 
manuscript,  which  it  was  thought  the  church  where  Mr. 
Williams  was  pastor  so  long  might  desire  to  possess] 
Mr.  Williams  took  a  sad  mis-step.  He  went  to  Harvard, 
from  Bradford,  and  was  for  eight  years  a  very  brilliant, 
scholarly  man.  But  he  committed  some  offence,  I  have 
heard  it  called  forgery,  which  led  to  his  instant  resigna- 
tion,— and  he  went  away  from  the  metropolis  of  culture 
and  refinement,  from  the  society  where  he  had  been  so 
honored,  to  the  then  new  and  back-woods  town  of  Rut- 
land. He  had  great  learning  and  ability,  but  there  was 
this  sad  episode  in  his  life,  which  destroyed  the  fame  of 
a  life  which  promised  so  much." 

I  am  not  aware  that  this  sad  story  has  ever  been  re- 
ferred to  in  print,  in  Vermont,  except  in  a  single  in- 
stance ;  Matthew  Lyon,  in  a  letter  to  his  constituents, 
printed  in  the  'Republican  Magazine  and  Scourge  of 
Aristocracy,'"  for  October  1-15.  179^,  published  by  his  son, 
James  Lyon,  at  Fairhaven,  Vt,.  has  the  following:  "In 
a  certain  paper,  [meaning  the  "Rutland  Herald,"  then 
edited  by  Rev.  Samuel  Williamsl  conducted  by  a  man  of 
great  learning,  the  same  who  some  years  ago  took  refuge 
in  this  State  from  a  prosecution  for  forger^'." 

The  "Herald"  was  an  organ  of  the  federal  party,  and 
bitterly  opposed  Col.  Lyon's  election  to  Congress. 

Col.  Lyon's  letter  was  evidently  written  on  the  eve  of 
his  trial  for  an  alleged  violation  of  the  Sedition  Law,  and 
with  a  federal  court  and  federal  officers  he  felt  that  con- 
viction was  certain,  and  he  was  right,  for  after  a  brief 
trial  of  one  day  at  Rutland,  he  was  convicted,  and  sen- 
tenced to  four  months'  imprisonment  in  close  jail,  and  to 
pay  a  fine  of  one  thousand  dollars  ;  and  on  the  Sth  of  Oc- 
tober, 1798.  he  was  incarcerated  in  the  jail  at  Vergennes. 

See  Lyon,  James. 

I  feel  none  but  the  kindest  motives,  and  the  vindication 


of  history,  in  making  public  ia'Vermont  this  sad  episode 
in  the  life  of  Mr.  Williams.  His  subsequent  upright  life 
and  career  in  Vermont,  his  services  in  behalf  of  the  wel- 
fare and  honor  of  the  State,  demand  that  a  momentary 
act  of  indiscretion  shall  be  forgotten  and  remembered  no 
more.

Dr.  Williamson  also  published  many  sermons  and  es- 
says in  pamphlet  form.  He  was  the  son  of  Ransom  and 
Jerusha  [Miller]  Williamson,  and  was  born  in  Pomfret, 
Vt..  April  4,  1807;  and  died  in  Cincinnati.  Ohio,  Novem- 
ber 2fi,  1S76.  He  received  only  a  common  school  educa- 
tion, but  his  ardent  thirst  for  knowledge,  force  of  charac- 
ter and  enthusiasm  made  amends  for  lack  of  external  aid. 
He  was  a  Universalist  of  the  Hosea  Sallou  school,  and 
adhered  to  this  phase  of  Christianity  all  his  life.  He 
preached  his  first  sermon  October  i,  1827,  at  Springfield, 
Vt.;  then  preached  a  while  in  New  Hampshire,  and  was 
regularly  ordained  by  the  Franklin  Association,  at  Town- 
shend,  Vt.,  September  10,1829.  He  was  settled  in  many 
places  in  various  States,  and  traveled  all  through  the 
I'nited  States,  North  and  South,  as  an  evangelist  and 
missionary,  and  visited  Great  Britain  in  this  capacity; 
but  for  the  last  twenty  years  of  his  life  his  home  was  in 
Cincinnati.  He  delivered  nearly  4.00c  sermons,  and  for 
40  vears  was  editoriallv  connected  with  periodicals  of 
the  Universalist  denomination,  ten  years  of  which  as 
joint  editor  and  proprietor  of  the  Star  in  the  IVest,  at 
Cincinnati.  He  was  a  prominent  Odd  Fellow,  and  for 
many  vears  Grand  Chaplain  of  the  Grand  Lodge  of  the 
ITnited  States,  and  the  ritual  now  in  use  by  that  Order 
was  largely  from  his  pen.  He  received  the  honorable  de- 
gree of  Doctor  of  Divinity,  from  the  Norwich,  Vt-.  Uni- 
versity, in  1850.  He  was  married  September  3,  1826.  to 
Miss  Adaline  Eliza  Guernsey,  of  Mount  Holly,  Vt.,  who 
survives  him  (1S81)  with  four  children — one  son  and  three 
daughters— all  of  whom  are  married  and  settled  in  life.

This  eminent  missionary  was  born  in  Willistou,  Vt., 
December  11,  1789,  and  died  on  his  way  from  India  to 
America,  October  22,  1864.  He  was  descended  from  the 
English  W  inslows,  of  the  same  stock  as  the  two  Gov- 
ernor Wiuslows  of  MayHower  and  Massachusetts  fame  ; 
was  graduated  at  Middlebury  College,  1815,  and  at  An- 
dover Theological  Senituary,  1818;  and  embarked  at 
Bcston,  June  8,  1819.  as  a  missionary  to  India,  under  the 
directionof  the  A.  B.  C.  F.  Al.,  where  he  labored  in  differ- 
ent places  there  during  the  remainder  of  his  life,  a  period 
of  nearly  46  years.     His  literary  labors  weie  numerous. 

His  memoir  of  his  first  wife,  Mrs.  Harriet  W.  Winslow, 
is  one  of  the  standard  volumes  of  the  American  Tract 
Society.  His  "  Hints  on  Missions,"  was  written  on  his 
passage  from  India  home,  in  1855,  as  a  sort  of  digest  of 
his  labors  and  observations  during  a  missionary  lif«  of 
37  years.  But  his  crowning  literary  labors  were  the 
translation  of  the  Bible  into  Tamil,  and  the  preparation 
of  a  Tamil-English  Lexicon:  the  full  title  of  the  latter 
beiuK.  "  A  Comprehensive  Tamil  and  English  Diction- 
ary of  High  and  Low  Tamil,"  a  work  of  prodigious  labor 
and  great  value,  occupying  a  large  share  of  his  time  for 
more  than  20  yeais;  contains  nearly  1,000  4to  pages,  and 
more  than  67,000  Tamil  words.  For  this  work  Mr.  \Vin8- 
low  received  the  highest  encomiums  from  the  press  and 
literary  and  official  sources  of  India  and  England. 

He  also  published  sev«ral  sermons  and  addresses,  and 
furnished  a  large  amount  of  correspondence  for  the 
"  Missionary  Herald,"  "  New  York  Obser\'er,"  and  other 
periodicals. 

Mr.  Winslow  was  five  times  married,  first  in  i8ig,  and 
lastly  in  1857  :  he  had  by  his  first  wife  six  children,  by 
the  second  one,  and  by  the  third  three;  of  the  ten  not 
more  than  two  or  three  survived  him.

Mr.  Young  was  born  in  Arlington,  Vt.,  March  20,  1785  ; 
aud  died  in  St.  Albans,  June  17,  1857.  He  commenced 
the  practice  of  law  at  Stowe,  about  1810  ;  aud  in  about 
two  years  removed  to  Craftsbury,  residing  there  and 
at  Johnson  until  1847,  when  ^^  removed  to  St.  Albans. 
He  was  in  Congress  1841-43.  aud  held  many  minor  offices 
in  the  State ;  he  paid  much  attention  to  scientific  and 
literary  pursuits. 

Young,  Brigham. 

Mr.  Young,  "President  of  the  Church  ol  Jesus  Christ 
ot  Latter  Day  Saints,"  is  perhaps  not  strictly  entitled  to 
a  place  here,  but  he  beinp:  a  native  of  Vermont,  and  so 
intimately  connected  in  his  marvellous  career  with  Jo. 
Smith,  another  native  of  this  State,  it  seems  proper  to 
notice  him.  He  was  born  in  Whitiugham,  Vt.,  June  i, 
1801  ;  and  died  at  Salt  Lake  City,  August  29,  1877.  His 
father  was  a  farmer,  aud  had  been  a  soldier  in  the  Revo- 
lution. When  Brigham  was  a  year  old  the  family  moved 
into  New  Y'ork  State,  and  there  he  grew  up.  In  1S32  he 
was  converted  to  Mormonism  under  the  preaching  of 
Elder  Samuel  H.  Smith,  a  brother  of  the  prophet  Joseph  ; 
and  in  September  of  that  year  went  with  the  Saints  to 
Kirtland.  Ohio,  and  was  rapidly  promoted  until,  upon 
the  death  of  the  Prophet,  he  became  the  Head  of  the 
Cliurch.  That  he  possessed  natural  abilities  of  a  high 
order  cannot  be  questioned;  the  triumphant  march  of 
the  Mormon  host  to  Salt  Lake,  under  the  direction  of 
Young,  was  a  success  perhaps  unexampled  in' history; 
his  iron  will  was  supreme,  aud  successful  over  all  opposi- 
tion. When  Albert  Smith,  a  brother  of  the  prophet,  dif- 
fered from  Young, the  latterdenouncinghim  iuaseimon. 
said,  "Tell  Albert  Smith  to  clear  out,  and  that  right 
quick,  too;  or  I  will  cut  his  damned  throat,  and  send 
him  to  hell  across  lots. ' ' 

We  suppose  Young  meant  the  same  pagan  hell  that 
Beecher,  Bob  Ingersoll,  and  others  of  various  religious 
sects  are  so  earnestly  discussing  at  the  present  time. 
(1879.)  "Brother  Brigham,"  as  his  people  called  him, 
was  large  and  portly,  with  a  steel  blue  eye,  a  resolute 
mouth,  a  ruddy  cheek,  an  imposing  carriage  and  a  very 
impressive  manner  ;  plain  and  simple  in  his  dress,  and 
indeed  in  all  his  habits.  He  had  an  excessive  fondness 
for  tobacco,  and  his  enemies  said  took  too  stiff  a  dram  ot 
whiskey  ;  he  ate  but  little,  toast,  bread  and  milk  beiiis 
his  chie'f  food.  He  rose  carlv,  aud  attended  with  great 
industry  to  the  multitudinous  affairs  that  daily  crowded 
upon  him.  He  establi.sbed  a  theocracy,  in  which  lives, 
property,  thought,  everything,  belonged  to  the  Church, 
and  the  Church  was  iirigham.  He  exercised  unques- 
tioned the  power  of  life  and  death:  he  banished,  and  he 
recalled  ;  he  enriched,  and  impoverished  ;  he  made  and 
unmade  ;  a  sovereign  absolute,  a  ]>oTitifr  infallible  as  the 
Pope.  He  regulated  Mormon  affairs  throughout  the 
world;  was  Governor.  Bishop  and  Pope  of  tlie  endow- 
ment house,  yet  women  came  to  him  to  consult  about

school  teachers.  He  was  a  "much-raarried-man,"  but  he 
gave  to  the  women  of  Utah  the  right  to  vote— a  privilege 
so  much  clamored  for  by  a  few  in  our  own  land.

SUMMARY. 


Mr.  CTiIman  commenced  the  publication  of  the  Bibliography  of  Vermont  in  the 
columns  of  the  Montpelier  Argus  and  Patriot  in  January,  1879,  and  the  publication 
was  continued  in  the  successive  issues  of  that  paper  until  the  22d  of  September,  1880, 
closing  with  the  following  remarks  and  table  of  Vermont  book  imprints  : 

"With  the  present  number,  the  printing  of  the  Bibliography  of  Vermont  is  closed 
for  the  present,  as  all  the  material  on  hand  has  been  printed.  The  work  is  now  being 
revised  and  corrected,  and  additional  material  gathered  will  be  placed  in  its  proper 
order. 

The  Vermont  book  imprints  in  the  above  work  are  as  follows:

The  whole  number  of  titles  in  the  work  is  about  6,000  with  references  in  brief  to 
perhaps  an  equal  number  in  addition. 

In  conclusion,  it  is  proper  to  state  that  the  citizens  of  Vermont,  and  natives  of  the 
State,  scattered  throughout  the  Globe,  and  Historical  people  everywhere,  as  well  as 
myself,  are  indebted  to  the  proprietor  of  the  Argus  and  Patriot  for  his  liberality  in 
giving  the  space  required  in  his  great  paper  for  now  going  on  two  years,  to  bring  the 
Bibliography  of  Vermont  to  its  present  standard. 

To  Mr.  Will  Sullivan  of  the  editorial  staff,  who  was  specially  assigned  by  Mr.  At- 
kins to  take  charge  of  the  work,  read  the  proof,  etc.,  the  thanks  of  all  are  due. 

With  becoming  delicacy,  I  cannot  withhold  my  gratitude  to  the  compositors,  ladies 
as  well  as  gentlemen,  who,  as  I  know,  have  patiently  waded  through  the  rough  manu- 
script, and  brought  the  Bibliography  of  Vermont  into  its  present  form. 

To  individuals,  and  they  are  a  legion,  who  have  helped  us  forward,  a  few  of  whom 
are  mentioned  in  the  body  of  the  work,  the  thanks  of  all  are  due  to  all.    I  cannot  how-

ever  withhold  the  name  of  Miss  M.  E.  Stone,  a  corresponding  member  of  the  Vermont 
Historical  Society  and  Assistant  Librarian  at  the  Congregational  House,  Boston,  Mass., 
for  her  constant  and  continued  service  in  behalf  of  the  Bibliography  of  Vermont ;  the 
compositors  especially  appreciate  her  clear  and  beautiful  chirography." 

Mr.  Oilman,  assisted  as  before  by  Miss  M.  E.  Stone  and  others,  subsequently  added 
637  titles  to  the  Bibliography.  To  these,  563  titles  have  been  added  by  G.  G.  Benedict, 
swelling  the  number  of  added  titles  to  1200,  and  the  grand  total  to  upwards  of  7,000. 

As  thus  supplemented  and  enlarged,  the  work  comprises  3452  Vermont  imprints, 
divided  as  follows  : 


Montpelier 857 

Burlington G96 

Rutland 431 

Windsor 289 

Middlebury 269

Among  the  added  titles  are  37  of  books  and  pamphlets  bearing  no  imprint  but 
known  to  have  been  printed  in  Vermont.  These,  if  included  in  the  total,  would  in- 
crease the  number  of  Vermont  imprints  to  3489.  Complete  lists  of  book  titles  issued 
from  the  various  printing  offices  in  Vermont  during  the  past  ten  years  would  unques- 
tionably swell  the  total  by  several  hundred  more  Vermont  imprints.
